Yard Haunt vs. Yard Display
Today I pose a question to Halloween enthusiasts alike. Which do you do: a yard haunt or a yard display? When I started my Halloween roots I was destined to build props and create a yard haunt. I had friends come over and we would portray Movie Maniacs to get the best scares while roaming the graveyard. My display got bigger and bigger, I added some vintage pieces and even modern inflatables. Over time I wanted to do less scary and more “Classic Spooky” As my display evolved I kept leaning toward loving that vintage look. So here we are now in current time in a new house and there are no elements of a yard haunt left. I would consider this a “yard display” I couldn’t be happier with the look “although my farmer has not delivered the corn stalks yet”. I have three other scenes not pictured to the display but all are decorative following the vintage motif.
So my question is: Do you have a yard haunt or a yard display? Secondly how has your decorating evolved over time? Also I want it to be very clear I love all Halloween Displays from only one pumpkin on the porch to a full on Asylum in the front yard PLEASE FEEL FREE POST PICS TOO!!!
