Halloween is approaching, and folks are starting to decorate their yards.
In the last few years, arranging skeletons in the front yard has really started to get elaborate. I’m starting to see some wild dioramas. Just today, I’ve seen:
Skeletons doing yard work. One was pushing a mower, another wielding a rake, and two more were leaning over bushes with hedge clippers.
Two skeletons dressed as a bride and groom. The bride was carrying the groom over a garden gate threshold.
Skeletons climbing up the front of a house and posed as though they were trying to open windows.
And now I’m seeing colossal Jack Skellington skeletons. I saw one today posed on the “widow’s walk” of a Victorian home, and did a big double-take. He looked very appropriate up there, in an Addams Family kind of way.
How about your neighborhood?
