2001 was the first appearance of Raven Manor. We did some props for 1999 and 2000, but they were random things with no overall theme and not to the same quality. We started with Eleanor (our Flying Crank Ghost), the mausoleum built for her to fly in, and 7 tombstones. The display ran just on Halloween night, the weather was quite pleasant both that day and night. The neighborhood really loved Eleanor, and we knew we had started something that would continue each year.
