    Large outdoor Halloween decorations featuring giant spider figures on a lawn in front of a house at sunset.

    I was out this morning when it was still dark and the spotlights were on. The school bus stopped and muffled kid shrieks and laughter followed. When it’s dark, the light paints giant spider leg shadows all across the front of the house. I’ve managed to get five years out of these spiders. Totally worth it!
