My Halloween special: The Itsy Bitsy Spider. A Creepy version of the nursery rhyme with my own extended lyrics + making of + mythology and folklore about spiders
Aww tell her the big chunky one even has a name now. It is big but harmless. It is almost Halloween after all, so the point is to be a bit spooky. And me being a ghost which is kind of a recurrent thing around this time of the year. I had lots of fun extending the lyrics of this one. I know my dark songs are usually less appreciated but they are so much fun. The video has its flaws but had to be within deadline... I made it, a day early at least. 👻🎃🤣 Blesses Samhain, All Hallows Eve. For me this time of the year is like a time for introspection, leaves fall and winter is ahead, but they also nourish the soil for future growth.
Our home grown spiders are nice too, like Eratigena atrica or Araneus diadematus (I don't have own photos around so I'm linking to @bowess' posts to show you examples)
However they are having a hard time with the cat being around ;-)
Oh I saw the spider blogs and I have followed :) This video features many species of spiders, most of the takes is a big fake wolf spider in my bathroom and some from a lurking spider in the corner of a room (still there), others are stock but took the trouble to composite them (like fufunchis) into creepy rooms If you see through the cobwebs you see the bed is already there halfway through the song. There are like two rooms, the toilet (in and out the window) and the bedroom. :) It was fun. And well, I'm a mice/rat person so I'd struggle with cats, but I think they're super cute. I think it's their natural instinct, he's just debugging your house, but aww poor spideys!
Were you in La Palma? I have yet to see "the aftermath" It's been a long time I've not been in my homeland but cannot afford now, all in due time. My family lives in Tenerife and I also need to pay a visit.
Thank you so much for the kind words. I confess I had to hurry a little and was even hesitant, in the end I uploaded it just when the spooky season was coming to an end, and I love there have been such lovely feedback here. I mean I am so grateful for the upvotes and all but what made my day was people sharing their opinion and encouraging commenta. Thank you Hive for that
Yes your work is really awesome!! :)
Oh yes I totally understand. Hive is such a great and supportive place! It´s really worth beeing here and it also keeps me going, that people always massively support creative stuff.
It really made a difference for me that this time it got so much feedback, it's a in important motivating part for me to know there is an audience to what to share here too. And yes, been around the whole time, just post slowly because I create slowly, but grateful to the community.
I love the set, the spider close ups and your voice, even the doodles but whatever you try, your face won't really look that scary ( your sweetness shines through)
Well, in all honesty I do not think the spider was bad at all in the story after all if we follow the words along. And thank you so much. These specials are fun.
That's a great one for Halloween. I've sung the song plenty of times as a kid and with my own kids, but you took it to a different place and the video is excellent.
We have a lot of spiders living in our house. They help control the flies and moths :) Sometimes we get a big one run across the floor. They are known as Hertfordshire Hairies. They are harmless. They seem to come inside when it gets colder, so may see some around now.
I don't kill spiders. Some of the bigger ones get caught with a cup and tossed outside.
Omg "hairies" might be the perfect cute word for them. I checked and the big chunky one in the video is similar, they just hunt. I do not kill them either, we have an understanding.
And thanks for the listen, I loved extending the lyrics. I think in UK is Incy Wincy?
Yes, I think that's always been part of the many versions of the song, though I found It was best for the atmosphere not to do them :) to remain mysterioooooouuuuus :)
It always makes me super happy you make the extra effort to find them. Fievel is the easiest, looks like Tuula so you may actually have seen him instead
Aw thank you. I intended to have it earlier this month but got "entangled in that web" if you know what I mean. But I feel accomplished that I got to complete it in time for Halloween. Thank you
I actually love months and a dear friend has send me cocoons to breed next year. Not for spiders though, I love moths too much. Hope to film the hatch and if lucky to happen that will be next Spring (some things you gotta plot like waaaaay ahead)
Spiders are great. Where I live none of them bite so I'll leave them alone; sometimes feed them the annoying bugs I don't want, like flies and mosquitos. But that's when out living in the middle of nowhere and the only thing to do is watch spiders some days. Still good entertainment.
I will, give me just a few days to tend to a little surprise family issue and my own health mishap. But sure, I will reach you and will try to reply during the holidays and thank you ❤️
I shall come through this court, Twitter or email after holidays and when I'm feeling a little bit better. Once again thanks for the chance to talk about my work.

Hola, greetings from "the islands"! ;-)
I watched the whole clip, but my wife couldn't, which means, I guess... good job? :-D

Btw enjoy the islands... Oh I wish I could drink a barraquito coffee and papas arrugadas 🥔 with mojo sauce and gofio. (Food from homeland)
Fortunately volcanoes are nice this time ;-)
Were you in La Palma? I have yet to see "the aftermath" It's been a long time I've not been in my homeland but cannot afford now, all in due time. My family lives in Tenerife and I also need to pay a visit.
Gran Canaria this time, there were no direct flights to La Palma yet, and our schedule was very tight.
Some other time then. Hope you had a great time though. I confess I have been myself a bit nostalgic about my homeland
Awesome! It´s a great piece of art! Not only the song, but the sound effects, atmosphere, the video. Thanks for sharing this!!! !PIZZA

Yes, it's Incy Wincy here. There are some hand actions to go with it.

Delightfully creepy! I did find the 3 rats, but not so sure about Fievel.
It always makes me super happy you make the extra effort to find them. Fievel is the easiest, looks like Tuula so you may actually have seen him instead
Yes, at the bottom, close to something that looks like a fish?
I hope Nosferatu is ok, and that you see him again soon!
This post has been manually curated by the VYB curation project
It is supposed to be wrinkled bed sheets shaping a ghost leaning forward to her, kinda abstract
Thanks for the curation
👻💖🕷️🐀
My pleasure 🙌 I'm not sure why I saw a fish 😲
I just want to say this entire presentation is phenomenal.
Aw thank you. I intended to have it earlier this month but got "entangled in that web" if you know what I mean. But I feel accomplished that I got to complete it in time for Halloween. Thank you
Perfect timing. And look! You even caught a few bugs!
