ITT: people who didn’t grow up celebrating Halloween in MA. A levitating character from a show is tame compared to some of the decorations we and our neighbors would put up (plus the in-home haunted houses) throughout the 90s.

IKR?! We have a skeleton that we have out on the porch year round. We dress them in clothes befitting whatever holiday is coming. On Halloween, since we now have two of the fun plastic bone guys, we are getting them married. I can only guess that there are some folks that walk, or drive by our home year round and have been offended by them. I mean the day I found "The Future" shirt at Target I will admit I thought "Is this too much?" But I bought it and put it on the main skeleton. My neighbors loved it. There are other streets people can take. Heck my dad, back in the 80's made all kinds of stuff to put in the field, and even took time to enjoy scaring the piss out of us kids walking by. These days some "Halloween should be cute not scary" Karen would probably leave a note on the front door
