    OMG! I have NEVER had this happen before. This was my first time. I was hanging up a black widow spider near my front window and I heard clapping!!

    A neighbor was crossing the street at the light and she was clapping for my display!! She said she loved it.

    I was so surprised and thrilled that I just burbled, "We LOVE Halloween around here." As if it weren't obvious!

    So so nice, I'm so glad someone likes my display!

    Isn't it great when people acknowledge your hard work. I got so many compliments last year over the very few things I did. It fed my desire to do bigger and better. I'm gonna be just a tad bigger this year but plan to make it bigger every year. The compliments are more than enough to keep me going.

    It's nice for people to appreciate your work

    It IS great because I've been doing this for years but we get so few ToTers that I'd never have had any idea that anyone really liked the display.

    When my children and I ToT, I always compliment people at the door if they decorated. I love getting people in the spirit!

    Yay! Awesome good fun.

    Awwe, that is so great Melanie!!

    That one kind gesture I bet absolutely made your week...what a great neighbour!!
    As I was going up the stair, I saw a man that wasn't there.
    He wasn't there again today...Oh how I wish he'd go away.

    really great to get those kinds of sentiments. One time my neighbors asked me if my wife was ok (was putting the finishing touches on a toe-pincher at the time...and it was April)...but it's always good to know that people take notice. I love getting the "oh that [insert prop here] really got me, nice work" from ppl that come ToTing...

    Wow that's cool. I think my neighbors like my yard haunt but they also think I'm nuts!
