HALLOWEEN HORRORS!

 A good friend and former neighbor of ours, Crosstown Lori (as she's known here) sent me a handful of photos from a walk she and a friend took in Prescott.

Our neighboring city goes back many decades before ours ever came into existence.

Think Doc Holliday and the Earps, for example, along with a ton of other historic figures from the days of the real Old West.

Think Whiskey Row.

But today think of Mt. Vernon Avenue with it's block after block of historic homes.

It's a place that goes all out for Halloween and gets thousands of visitors from as far away as Phoenix on the Witching Night eager for the candy handed out by the homeowners.

And, courtesy of Lori's photos, have a look at their decorating enthusiasm.

Damn, and I thought my neighbor across the street was extreme with putting spider web stuff on on their porch.

These are great! Wish my neighbors had stepped up.

Beautiful homes although I'm not a huge fan of too many Halloween decorations. When did they become so popular?

Fascinating pictures but when are we going to see a photo of The Taylor Residence with its Halloween makeover?

Steve Reed said...

That's some serious decorating -- more thorough than anything I've seen here.

These are wonderful. So much effort has been put into these displays.

I thought I had left a comment here, but then I remembered that blogger wouldn't publish it. So, now I'm going to try again. I love seeing the decorations there. Halloween is such a spooky fun time of the year.
