While everyone else is putting fake spiderwebs and carved pumpkins [1] on their doorsteps to decorate their homes for Halloween, an Ohio resident just took things things to the next level. Alan Perkins is no stranger to seasonal decorating [2], and this year, he decided to turn his home into a haunting display with a huge (and we mean huge) skeleton for all to see. Complete with the 12-foot tall skeleton from Home Depot [3] that went viral last year, Perkins's decorations are so extreme that the oversize skeleton is just a prop for the main display.
With massive hands coming out of the house to grab the Home Depot skeleton, Perkins's decorating skills are enough to make any Halloween-lover gasp. He's been working on the display for about a month and he's still (!) adding to it. The Ohio resident is planning on creating a huge skeleton [4] head that'll pop out of the roof of his house, meaning the scene is about to get a whole lot scarier. With the help of his two children, Perkins crafted the massive display with foam, tape, and tons of creativity.
In a Facebook group called the Cleveland Haunt Club [5], Perkins posted an update for those following his creation: "So people keep asking for updates. I got the arms and hands mounted today. A neighbor of mine let me borrow his 12 foot skeleton to capture. Still need to make the skull breaking through the roof. Getting closer though. I also posted a picture of my window covers and the connection pieces for the knuckles that allow the fingers to move. Located on River Road in Olmsted Falls." With a display like this, Halloween is sure to make you scream.
Ohio resident Alan Perkins has taken the 12 foot skeleton game to an entirely new level, building a MASSIVE skeleton bursting out of his home to grab the 12 footer like a toy. Apparently he's still going to add a giant skull bursting through the roof. Just phenomenal work. pic.twitter.com/0aTEQhVWvu [6]
