There is one block in my neighborhood that goes all out for Halloween. It is always lots of fun to see and even better at night when it is all lit up! This year there is a tribute to Johnny Cash and Diehardcubsfans....

They do a good job. That takes a lot of imagination. More than I have.

Great neighborhood! Very creative. I'm sure the kids love trick or treating around there.

Those pictures are incredible! What a lot of work for Halloween. But I bet the kids just love it.

I have noticed for the past few years that people are decorating more and more for Halloween.

But the number of trick or treaters is less as people are keeping their kids at home and having parties.

I just loved the tall skeletons in black.

I'm a "mush" when it comes to decorating and seeing others decorating. We haven't yet put our total Halloween decoration out yet, but it will be done before Friday. Turns out that Hubby is definitely not a fan of Halloween, but he's going to indulge us, regardless, bless his heart!! :)

Sara, those are great, though. And mine will not even compete with what you have there. But isn't it great to see the orange lights, pumpins, ghosts, etc lighted, and decorating our streets?? I think I just love the added lighting and fun that goes along wiht it all!

Wow, what a creative bunch of people in your street. Walking down that street by dusk must be pretty scary! I love it! :D

Logan...my husband does not like my meager outside Halloween decoration either! The raccoons keep knocking it down and he just leaves it there...:( :(
Gini...it is hard to tell from the angle but the one black skeleton is almost two stories high!

Here's what you see from the sidewalk by my house...

Me too! In our neighborhood I think we're the only ones that put any Halloween decorations out at all. :rolleyes: What fun to have such creative neighbors! :D

Sara Incredible pictures!!
When I was over last year (early Oct) neigbours of Diane and Jason had the most wonderful set pieces in their front garden - I'd have loved to have stayed for Hallowe'en, but we had to leave.
Over here in UK we don't 'decorate' our houses for Hallowe'en - in fact it's not big at all. We sort of save it all for Bonfire Night - 5th November. When we have huge bonfires, lots of fireworks and traditional things are eaten - treacle toffee, baked potatoes, sausages, peas and parkin (a sort of lovely gingery/treacle type cake).

:D That is hilarious! I wouldn't like to walk there on my own after dark. Can the kids in your neighbourhood sleep OK?
