stay spooky

This fellow in Parma does not disappoint.  Each year he builds a different tableau.  Since i have started snapping fotos of Hallowe'en decorations, there are two houses i try to always see:  this one above, and one in Cleveland near Lakewood [so far that house has no display].  Some are far more locally noted; but those tend to be over stuffed with everything they can find in the stores, and maybe add onto in successive years; as some people do for Christmas, ten pounds of sh*t in an eight pound bag.  But these two have put up a new story in successive years, and tell a story.

Saw this on a metal pole on Detroit Road Cleveland. —  Ω ☨

When i was a small child, black cats, skeletons, witches, and pumpkins decorated Hallowe'en,  Don't see black cats now.  This is a sign from a barber shop, which had a car smash into it.

Not spooky at all, but i like the housewife cement goose.  There are two other celebrations that have a festive spooky character: Spooky Pooch Parade, and Dia de Muertos.  I really dislike the gruesome, blood & guts, terror presentations; those are wretched.
