Just saw this video today! Huge kinetic wind-powered PVC creatures which scurry across the beach. Imagine these creatures in black (with a spookier soundtrack please) creeping across your lawn (Ok, you need a REALLY big lawn.)
Maybe for once, just once, wind on Halloween would be a good thing!

Oh man! I've seen these before, but didn't even think about doing something like this for Halloween! I wonder how efficient they might be, done on a much smaller scale?

ˆYeah, I think it's an interesting idea. The wind gives them (IMO) a much more natural movement than something running off a standard motor. They remind me of giant insects. They leave you at the mercy of mother nature, though.
He's got a few more on Youtube if you look around.
