The Gang in the Old Neighborhood


I took a drive over to my old neighborhood over the weekend to see if my former neighbor had his family of skeletons out for the Halloween season.  As you can see he did!  The gang was all there.


Even the family dog (or is that a cat) was present and accounted for.


I went back after dark to see how they looked at night but, I thought they were a little dim to the naked eye this year.  However a long exposure has them lit up pretty well.


I'm glad I stopped back.  Those stragglers hanging out on the cars in the driveway weren't there in the afternoon.  Maybe they just stopped by for a visit.

  1. Very good Halloween display. They look a bit undernourished.

  2. Oh my! I just love it. I have never seen anything of the kind. It was worth it going back at night.

    The skeletons are out tonight,
    they march about the street,
    With bony bodies, bony heads
    and bony hands and feet.
    Bony bony bony bones
    with nothing in between,
    Up and down and all around
    they march on Halloween."

  9. Is your neighbor a doctor or a pathologist?

  10. Oh good Lord! That is sooooo funny and yet somehow pretty weird. I saw someone asked if your neighbor was a pathologist. I think that's the wrong question: I think the question is: Is your neighbor pathological? Heh, heh. Lots of fun but a lot of work, too, and to what purpose? And where would you store all that stuff?

  12. Roseann, I really don't know what their professions are. I never got to know them before I moved away. I do know that their Halloween decorations were way more elaborate than their Christmas decorations.
