It's Halloween and though I'm not keen on all that goes on with it in the UK. It is on of those things that seems to have come over from the other side of the pond that companies can jump on the band waggon and make money from. Saying that I do appreciate the work some people put into their costumes and decorations. Walking along the road today someone had really pushed out the boat
The had decorated their front garden
Carved pumpkins
Skeleton coming out of the ground
Zombies & giant spiders
Ghosts floating around
The odd Witch
or two. Yep that should please the local kids tonight
Each year it gets bigger. Haven't seen any local houses or gardens decorated like the one in your post.
ReplyDeleteThe skeleton coming out of the ground is my favourite of these.
ReplyDeleteAnd things that go bump in the noght!
ReplyDeleteIt's worth pointing out that Hallowe'en is actually from the UK. You lot just stopped doing it. (The pumpkins are ours, though; you used turnips back in the day.) In between times you seem to have transferred your Hallowe'en-type observances to Guy Fawkes.
ReplyDeleteEither way it's fun. Thanks for the photos!

Can't say it was something I celibrated as a kid though I did trick or threat a few times, I think what I don't like is how it has become so commercialised like Christmas in recent years
DeleteLove seeing the decorations there. People are so creative and funny.
ReplyDeleteHow fun! I especially like the witch in the last photo.
