I am not a fan of inflatables but....

Inflatables were cool the first few times they were used. Now they have lost their luster. My persona opinion. My sister however actually becomes incensed at the mere sight or mention of inflatables. At Christmas time we like to get together as a family and go look at Christmas lights. One year my dad had seen a place with lots of inflatables and decided he would include that house on our tour of lights. My sister didn't talk to him the rest of the night.

So people feel passionately about them on both sides of the isle. Its just now they even have them for Easter. I do have to chuckle at the Santa on a John Deer I saw last year. For those of you that love inflatables, please tie them down. There is nothing sadder then inflatables tipped over in someones yard.

I have an inflatable, it is about 5ft tall, has a skull with glowing eyes and about 100 little bats flying around in it. I put it in my family room and my cat just loves to look at all the bats and tries to catch them (he doesn't have any claws). It just drives him crazy.

I have got to see this, it sounds incredible. Do you have any pictures?

Sorry HappyScientist, don't have any pictures, but I should, for memory sake.
I will take some this halloween along with other pictures that I have been meaning to post. I found my pictures of when I went to Salem MA for halloween and some pictures that I like of my animals and me. I am wanting to post those too, as soon as I get a new scanner.

I'm not one for inflatables myself, but this is really such a cool use of them, it's inspiring some possible uses.

"The secret priests would take great Cthulhu from his tomb to revive His subjects and resume his rule of earth....Then mankind would have become as the Great Old Ones; free and wild and beyond good and evil, with laws and morals thrown aside and all men shouting and killing and revelling in joy. Then the liberated Old Ones would teach them new ways to shout and kill and revel and enjoy themselves, and all the earth would flame with a holocaust of ecstasy and freedom."

-Lovecraft, "The Call of Cthulhu," p. 141.

That's the first interesting inflatable I have seen in a very long time!

**Halloweeeiner** · 06-30-2009,10:36 PM

for those people that say inflatables are cheap... IMO they are not. I mean 69+ for it.. not my cup of tea I guess.
