Spooky

It's getting close to Halloween, and a few people on my street have been decking out their houses in spooky ornamentation. The woman living across from us covered the entire entrance of her house with fake cobwebs, fake pumpkins, and other assorted fake halloween goodies. What she doesn't realize is that we are totally beating her in spookiness. Sure, we have our fair share of fake halloween plastic decorations, like the fake grave stones that sit in our giant potted plants, our fake skeleton that hangs from the front porch, and the fake plastic glow-in-the-dark bugs that are all over our patio. However, our porch is covered in actual cobwebs, filled with actual spiders, tangled in a mass of actual dead flies, moths, and other assorted bugs.

Call it laziness, or a bit of Halloween brilliance, but no one in our neighborhood can hold a candle to our spooky/disgusting porch.

HAHA very amusing. You truely are dedicated to Halloween. It's definitely the real stuff that scares people too. All the decorations can scare little kids but not adults although most people I know are at least a little bit afraid of spiders and the masses of dead flies and moths I'm sure grosses some people out!
