Ghosts and goblins in the hood

Today, I took a walk in the neighborhood. 

I spied lots of spooky yards

They wait for Hallow's eve to descend upon them.

Won't you stroll along with me

And discover the characters of halloween.

Help, I've fallen and I can't get up!











And the pumpkin head that I said goodbye to at my yard sale.

We were very close, as I created him with my own two hands.

As you can see, he's part of the neighborhood watch.







Bye, bye.

I hope you enjoyed my tour

of ghosts and goblins,

and reapers and other scary things that go bump in the night.

  8. our neighborhood is all decked out, too....

    not our house though...we just aren't big halloween people..and really never have been....

    I have some pumpkins out and a fall wreath on my door.... and probably somewhere down around the corner, is a sign pointing towards our house with a note that reads...."boring people"

    BUT...I do give out good candy :)

  9. Oh fun!

    My all time favorite decoration is of the witch flying her broom, and she's crashed into a tree or telephone pole. It cracks me up every time I see it.

    Do you know the one?

    If I see any, you can bet that will make it to my photo blog!

  14. I should take a photo of my scary scarecrow. This time of year it scares more than crows but at least it's still standing.

  15. Great shots. I have thought of walking the neighborhood, but was afraid that it would creep out the neighbors. Did you get any reactions? I was inspired by your shots! I think I may try this.

  16. That's a very creative looking front yard, especially that part with Death against the wall. That's very spooky.
