| Around the block from our house, people always create amazing Halloween displays. In this area, there are often hundreds of trick-or-treaters. Besides many human-size skeletons, numerous 12 foot figures are also on display. I'll post photos of the giants tomorrow. |

Hello,
ReplyDeleteI love all the decorations, the skeletons are great. They seem so tall, the flying monkey one is awesome. Fun post and photos. Take care, have a great week!
What a fun neighborhood you live in. I love all of the decorations. The skeleton party looks like fun.
ReplyDeleteI'll say that your neighbors do some serious Halloween decorating. Amazing . Really enjoyed it. Thanks.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for sharing dear! We all need this happy silliness right now.. appreciated. Aloha!
ReplyDeleteA lot of ghouls and skeletons there. Wow. Do they play music with those skeleton guitarists?
ReplyDeleteThese are really fun!
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun Halloween inspired neighborhood in which you live. I am in awe. We only have one house that decorates with a hearse and the skeleton horses and skeletons. You have an entire neighborhood that decorates in style. And of course, the skeletons that are drinking had me laughing. They are absolutely perfect for T this week, dear Mae.
ReplyDeleteThe reason I get a free pound of coffee every month is because I donate an absurd amount of money to my PBS station every year. It's my ONLY charity to which I donate.
Those are quite the Halloween displays in your neighborhood! It must be a lot of fun walking there these days and discovering something new. I really like the guys playing the tombstone guitars in your first picture.
ReplyDeleteInteresting decorations. I personally don't like skeletons or scary things but to each their own.
ReplyDeleteHappy Tea Day,
Kate
That giant creature with bat wings is pretty scary. If I was a little child I'd be afraid to trick or treat at that house. But since I'm not seeing them in the dark, it's fun to see them. Have a great T day and week ahead Mae. hugs-Erika
ReplyDeletewow these are absolutely fabulous Mae. We have several schools near us so we get lots of the little blighters for Halloween :=) Just kidding. We love Halloween!
ReplyDeleteVery cool punks! And other dudes! Wow (big wow) on those pumpkins!
ReplyDeleteYour area rocks!
Halloween is obviously alive and well where you live. Here it passes with barely a nod to its existence and on our street there are very few small children, and the porch remains quiet on the night. I think that this year we will simply turn out the light and retire to the family room with a glass of wine and some aged Brie. Sounds better than opening the door to little ghouls!
ReplyDeleteFantastic decorations, wish we had some like that here. The rock band in the first picture was my fave! Happy T Day Valerie
ReplyDeleteI've never really 'got' the whole Halloween thing. I don't see why people should make a festival/holiday out of skeletons and ghouls. I'll still be here in the Netherlands on the 31st, but I haven't seen much displays. Just in a few shops. I don't think they celebrate it here either. They didn't when I was a child.
ReplyDeleteI will do what David (previous comment) does: Have a glass of wine and some good Brie.
Happy T Day,
Hugs,
Lisca
I think the skeleton party is my favorite, but I like them all. We get some decorations here, and I always enjoy seeing them. Happy T Tuesday!
ReplyDeleteLove the Halloween decor in your neighborhood! The kids are in for a treat.
ReplyDeleteHalloween seems to give many people an opportunity to go wild with their creativity. I love to see that.
ReplyDeleteOhhh I am so into your neighborhood. Perfect for FFO LOL have a lovely day today.
ReplyDeleteWe have shops full of plastic decorations but not many creative decorators - some one on the main road nearby has covered their hedge with fake cobweb but not even bothered to tease it out! Looks as though your neighbourhood goes all out! Belated Happy T Day, Chrisx
ReplyDeleteI love the skeletal drinking party! I'm never big on blow-ups (they look so sad when they deflate) but those are pretty cute ones!
