Skeletons relax on the corner welcoming drivers and Yorktown students who pass by on Yorktown Blvd.
This yard on Brandywine is full of Halloween spirits from the skeleton spewing grew hazardous waste in the side yard to the towering monster and the green eyed skull tossing its head of long silver hair back and forth while the child swinging in the tree howls out eerie sounds to the neighborhood.
Tallest skeleton around reaches height of some local trees in the yard on Williamsburg.
