I first saw this trio of witches last year and was thrilled when they appeared again. So simple, so chilling.
Being curious I looked up how many witches are required to form a coven, turns out thirteen is considered ideal, but it can be as few as three.
These are the front door decorations at the same property, I like their style!
Something seems to be happening here and I'm not sure exactly sure what it is. Is the big guy Trump and those are his minions?
This was the scene on the other side of the lawn...
How about a ghostly, scary-plant intermission? 
I love this plant so much and they're growing it so well. I think it's Cylindropuntia whipplei ‘Snow Leopard’.
What a great needle echo!
My neighbors across the street go all in for the holiday and create a themed front yard display, this year it's a cemetery. That fence, the pillars, all of it... went up in the last few weeks. 
Across the driveway...
The fence itself is made of PVC pipe, foam, and black spray paint. A lot of spray paint. Rattle can shaking was the soundtrack to this year's Great Migration.
I like their attention to detail with the newly dug grave.
And the grave robber (?).
We don't get a lot of trick or treaters in our neighborhood, but that might change when word of this creep-fest gets out.
So if my favorite last year was the trio of witches, this has to be my favorite this year.
Walking up to photograph it on a sunny afternoon gave me the chills. If a motion activated voice or movement had happened, I'd have screamed out-loud and ran.
Hope you have a scary fun Halloween!

The neighborhoods you wandered to come up with these photos are much more interesting than mine, which seems to have copped out on Halloween this year. However, I drove by 3 of the giant skeletons earlier this week - there was one peering over the top of a fence, which I thought was very effective. I've been tempted to buy a trio of witches but my husband would probably have me committed - he'd be happier if I shut off all our lights and stopped the candy handouts.
ReplyDeleteThat's a fun to see how folks around the neighborhood participate in the holiday. I liked the trio of witches and learned a new word, 'coven', in the process; though not quite as effective as 'a murder' of crows.
ReplyDeleteA motion activated shrill startled me on my walk the other day... I could do without that aspect of the holiday.
I love your own stylish display. Is it a sansevieria in the background?

Your own creation is my favorite!
