Oh I wish I had seen this Live WHEN it was Live. That pineapple is named Christine's Pissed Off Pineapple Pulp 🤣

Sheri Stoddard

{1} I would love to craft some Halloween spiders, vultures and other creepy Halloween tree decor! {2} Tea, cookies, candles and cozy blankets! {3} Body, what body? !

Sam Hussey

I Have your book my partner was able to get it for me a few years ago😺

Sam Hussey

The cat🥺🥺🥺

Michelle Wilson

The cat story was sad. It seems like he was telling you goodbye and letting you know how much you meant to him even though he was unable to show you while he was alive. I imagine someday he will be waiting for you with your other beloved furbabies but will be able to share his love openly on the other side. Glad your little Archemedes is doing well and the rest of your beautiful fur family.

Kitara

make sure they are covid-free so everyone is safe.

Elizabeth Goans

Im so happy Archemedes is doing well!

Joyce Oestman

Idea for the contest: we name your new classic car.

Theodosia Pixietwist

I love this idea!!!

Alexandra Conrad

Thanks for taking questions ahead of time! I've tried asking a few live and the speed at which they fly down the screen is mind-boggling. I've even tried strategically double-posting the same question to no avail. There's just too much patron enthusiasm!

Sandra Martinez

Contest Idea: Write a fun obituary for Christine or yourself.

Alyne Whiteswan

You may not live in a haunted house, but its a haunting house.

Kim Geoffroy

Loved the kitty story, my thoughts are he/she went away, hopefully passed peacefully, and could then give you the love and affection in your dreams that he/she couldn't give while alive, whatever the fear.

Cat

I loved your story. Happy Birthday! 🦇🦇🦇

Rebekah Mushinski

I cannot wait to see what you do for the banister! I have a similar problem (on a much smaller scale) with my fearless kitties and am desperate for ideas.

Adam Gibson

I managed to get your book for £43 on Amazon in the UK but paperback but still glad to get it ☺️

Elizabeth Edwards

Really enjoyed watching! I love hearing about products you like. Excited for all the fun Fall projects!

Amelia Botello

That would be cool a coffee table book of pictures with a really cool cover with a design you make but full of pictures of anything have made full page size like of kitchen and the dinning rooms, holiday stuff, dresses and pets and artworks.

veronica

We have the same birthday <3

Haley

loved the supernatural story!

Alyssa Epstein

You mentioned you shop online for oddities- if you’d ever be interested in checking out a Patron’s online shop for bones and oddities let me know! My husband and I have an Instagram store. We can even help you find specific items you’re looking for. We’ll give you a good deal! 🥰

Peaches McDrools

Just bought a hardcover copy of Deceptive desserts!!!

Amy Bainbridge

Ooh thanks!!! Love kiwi humour x

Matthew Robert Davies

OOoo there's a show on BBC Iplayer called 'Ghosts' you might like. A Couple inherit an old manor and start to renovate it to a bnb but its haunted by different generational ghosts.

Diane plevelich

What about posting photos of an obscure antique (something Victorian that hardly anyone would know what it is?) and have everyone guess what they think it is including a description of how they think it should be used. These could be very funny and you could choose the winner with the best description. No real skills needed and it could be a fun challenge.

Angela Pearson

I had an accidental nap and missed you live. Great that you locked the teirs, fantastic to protect your interests. It's been a hard year for most but that doesn't excuse jumping up a month or so before the gifts roll out, only to go back down after you receive them ;) If i can think of a relevant contest idea I'll share. Perhaps an aptitude test to make sure you'll not regret letting someone overnight with you :D

Kathleen Smith

What if you did a contest for the best scary or haunting poem??

Angelika

Hi Christine, regarding the contest, I just want to mention that you won't be able to host people from outside of the U.S. due to Covid restrictions regarding entering the States on tourist visa. Unless the winner is a U.S. citizen or has a Green Card I don't see how how he/she could enter the U.S. given the restrictions.

Nerdyfae

When you open the video, be sure to open it in YouTube and comment there. You need a YouTube account to do so.

Nerdyfae

They have a paperback copy for $60. Bit better that the cost of the hard cover, at least.

Nerdyfae

If you click on it here when you are on your smart phone, then open it in the YouTube app, it will be in your watch history. Then you can go on YouTube on your TV and it should still be in your watch history. Hope that helps!

Suzanne Robinson

Hi Kristine, would you consider, in this new virtual world, having a special Halloween Zoom event? You could have a contest or something and have 20 or 30 people on? It would be really fun to see you and everyone as well. Nice way to have a virtual group event. If someone has a question you can give the permission to speak. It would just add more dimensions to live stream. Since everyone can't join, you could record it for others to watch later.

Nerdyfae

Ooo, I have a suggestion for the contest: have people submit a Death's head hawkmoth-inspired craft!

Charlotte Ravenna

The UK Amazon site still has some paperback Deceptive Desserts: A Lady's Guide to Baking Bad! Books just in case anyone was looking for one ❤️❤️

Briana Dixon

Contest idea: we color a spooky/Halloween themed color page. Either one you choose or one you draw. (From what I've seen of your art on your videos, you are a good artist.)

Laurie B.

Contest idea- what about Patreons picking their favorite scary movie and submitting a photo pertaining to the movie and the most likes wins?

Tammy R Dowden

I was TOTALLY going to say Miss Havisham! She'd be perfect!

Melissa

Something that would save my life is a beautiful couch slip cover for antique furniture. How to cut it and piece it together so it doesn’t take away from the essence of the furniture but still protect it from my kitties

Diane plevelich

You mention being an old lady several times. Are you familiar with the doll artist Dustin Pouche? His dolls are amazing. He created one that was featured on the cover of Art Doll Quarterly (no longer available) named Miss Haversham. As soon as I saw your house I could picture Miss Haversham greeting folks at your door. I wonder if you could collaborate to create a large doll like her but in your image at a more advanced age. He has a background in haute couture and makes the most beautiful and amusing charectors. Find Miss Haversham (she is of course wearing her tatty old wedding gown still from days gone by) and see for yourself. https://www.niada.org/portfolio/dustin-poche/

Rachel Guy-Whittle

LOVE the best true ghost story idea! Also anyone that likes What We Do in the Shadows definitely check our a kiwi film called Housebound it’s so much fun.

Robin D.

I agree that the contest should be the best short true ghost story

Angela Coppola

What We Do In The Shadows is hilarious! Nadja is my favorite, but they are all amazing. Guillermo's stares at the camera are priceless! My favorite episode is when they take the Baron out. Fun fact: Baron Afanas is played by Doug Jones who was Billy in Hocus Pocus :)

Dora Villanueva

I too am so excited about Halloween! I already started sculpting my enchanted candles, painting my spooky portraits, and creating other decorations for my enchanted castle theme. I love unique, artful pieces, that become part of my forever. Again, thank you so much for your kind heart. I too love animals, especially kitties. My four furry boys are just the best…. I am so happy for your new kitty. I will be looking out for your stair barrier episode, I also have a dangerously high area, where the kitties love to perch. Every other day, I have a mini heart attack! 😱😱😱😁😽😽😽😽💙💙💙💙

Jillian Melgosa

LOVE this idea!!

NightshadeButterfly

Thank you so much for your help. I'll try that next time.

Robin D.

Happy Birthday! ( in advance) I always look forward to everything you do and enjoy the episodes usually after the release date,: its all good!

Cassandra Cyr

Contest Idea: a suggestion for a monthly video! You pick (or everyone votes on) their favorite idea and then part of the visit can be helping plan it out (or if they are an expert in the topic already, giving advice!).

Emily Masterson

What if we did a coloring contest?! Like the ones everyone probably did as a kid? Send out a coloring book style drawing of your house or scarecrow or Archimedes, and have people color it and send in submissions! Example: https://www.hgtv.com/design/decorating/design-101/see-the-winners-of-hgtv-magazine-s-coloring-contest-pictures

Lorena zitelli

Thank you Slone Tricia I hope next time I can join again and this time be part of the interaction 👍

Alyce

Hi Christine, I was not able to join in live, but just finished watching. Your stories about your mom, the captive and the forest kitty were very sweet. Thank you for always having something kind and interesting to talk about. I always look forward to your next live stream or amazing creation videos!

Mariana Escobedo

You are such a kind person. Also, the pineapple story was really funny :-)

Christine Papio

Thanks for sharing your sad but sweet paranormal story. That was nice of the feral kitty to send you a sign that they appreciated your kindness, and I like to think that they're in a more peaceful and happier place.

Alex Moore

Ah! What we do in the shadows is sooo good! Can't wait for the new season (I was laughing so hard at the new trailers)! Have you heard of the podcast, Ologies? I like listening to it when I'm working. Oh, and my kitty Scribble jumps up on our stair banister too :( Also, thank you for sharing your story about forest kitty ❤️

Alyne Whiteswan

You should head up a Halloween costume parade down your street with all the little kids and film it. Carrying candles and singing spooky child songs.

laureta Huit

Oh man I missed it

Talesha Hogan

Hello everyone !!!

Judy K. Zamlen-Spotts

Thank you so much!!

Erica Holcomb

I tried to comment during the live stream but I don't know if it worked or not, I am sadly not very tech savvy. Amazon does have a kindle version of Christine's book. It's not quite the same as having a physical copy but it is much cheaper.

Zachary M

Contest idea: who can come up with the best contest (which would be used for a future contest)

Christina Rodriguez

I think it was a way for that ferrel kitty to say goodbye. (whether he moved on to another area or another realm, who knows) What a touching story. Also I am SO ready for your Halloween content! :) BRING IT ON

Christine Peterson

I hope the contest is making a costume or a photo contest after the photography episode!!

Lady Barronmore

You have me curious.

Welikemeatloaf

Yes! Provided you promise not to start decorating for Christmas in September!

Welikemeatloaf

For the contest, maybe a very short, less than 20 or 25 words, ghost story. Sort of a ghost story haiku

Tricia Slone

When you click on her livestream from this screen, you'll see at the bottom right "YouTube". Click on that and it'll bring you to YT where you'll see the live discussions and can participate.

Happy Birthday Christine

Genevieve Fernety

Oh man. If this was the contest I would win.

Magdalena Mojica

Oh darn... I got the 3 hour difference wrong. Shoot. Well I guess I'll be watching on the after math.

Lady Barronmore

Contest idea. (I posted this on YouTube also). What if we describe our ideal funeral?

Lady Barronmore

She reads the comments in the YouTube live stream during the event so if you want to interact you need a YouTube account.

Lorena zitelli

It was fantastic but I do not know how to interact without taking off the video I’m new I have not idea how this work

Catherine

I love the idea about teaching us to “edit” thrifted dresses. ❤️

Christina Rodriguez

I was finally around for this one, and somehow still managed to just miss it. *facepalm* Next time I'm setting a REMINDER :-D

Judy K. Zamlen-Spotts

Contest Idea: Possibly, we could come up with ideas/suggestions/recipes for a new traditional Halloween candy. And then we as Patreon fans of Christine could blitz a candy company to ask them to produce our new candy idea. I love Halloween.

Vicky

Had a great time thank you Christine.

Judy K. Zamlen-Spotts

This was so much fun. This was a great episode, and all of the posts were inspiring.

Carol Blum

Beardslee is a restaurant and teenagers used to go behind it looking for a ghost. Happy Birthday! That would be a lovely place for dinner.

Cheryl Kirkpatrick

For the contest you should make your patron recreate the pineapple smashing on video and upload it.

Holly Bader

Do you have a favorite vintage cookbook?

Courtney

Where can I find information or pictures of your pink witch outfit?

Nelia Torres

What about a photography contest after your photography episode?

Laura

I adore "What We Do In the Shadows"

Catherine

Cruella definitely mind blowingly fabulous.

Jane C Holmberg

Totally agree about that sunscreen! It doesn't make you look like Casper.

Elisabeth Brown

Amazon has paperbacks for $60

Mary Ann McInnis

Just to be clear, can I start putting up Halloween decorations in my house in August???

Cheryl Kirkpatrick

Can you do an episode where you go to different antique shops around town?

PennySized Dreadfuls

Can anyone help me with a link so I can watch on YouTube instead cuz I can’t get it to cast to my tv from here. Thank you 😊

SyphiraChaos

I ask because you give off a Masquerade vibe

Lyndsey Zeller

I will be on a cruise to the Bahamas for Halloween. My daughter’s BFF is getting married there!

SyphiraChaos

What's your favorite theme for a Halloween party?

PennySized Dreadfuls

Melissa Stevenson

Melissa Stevenson

Tammy Wilson

Cheryl Kirkpatrick

Shannon R.

I think the fact that you locked the higher tiers is incredibly thoughtful of you.

Cheryl Kirkpatrick

Doing any shopping for Halloween?

Tara Mila

SyphiraChaos

PS I love your black teapot and cup. Is that a kitty creamer cup??

Paul Fliedner

I've been Halloween decor hunting for several days in a row now. My boyfriend is very much over it. However, it is officially spooky season in my brain!

Maddy

I’m getting married on this Halloween

Monica

Happy birthday for the 29th! Do you have any plans for it?

SyphiraChaos

Any projects?

SyphiraChaos

I know it's early for Halloween, but do you have any teasers for us for what you're planning for Halloween?

NightshadeButterfly

I couldn't figure out how or where to post questions in order for you to answer them as soon as you read them during the live stream.

Molly Pruitt

Hi from Florida! I am moving cross country - any advice for the trip with pets?
