Monster Truck
I know it cheesy, silly, and maybe even stupid, but I just couldn't help myself.
Halloween is a pretty big deal here on my block, and in the really nice neighborhood a block over. So a lot of people make an effort on the whole block. I had already lit the house orange while the Giants were playing in Texas so it was just one more step to add the truck into the decor. I hooked up a 2nd battery and a trickle charger so I could leave the lights on for a few hours. Kids loved it, and would stop to take pictures posing in front. Next year I'll had a smoke machine, and sound track so when the kids stop it'll blow smoke and make noises (different from the smoke and noises it usually makes).
People bring their kids from all over the city so for the first couple of hours after dark it's mayhem here. I gave out 150 pieces of candy in 2 hours 1 per kid. My girlfriend is super into Halloween and helped with all of this. She gave out most of the candy and really likes to see the effort people make. As such she is not very impressed with lazy teenagers that don't make any effort and show up wearing a sweatshirt and calling it a costume. So behind the candy bowel she keeps a couple of broken open cloves of garlic. When punk *** lazy teens come she reaches behind the candy bowel and gets a handful of garlic cloves, then reaches into their candy bag to release them. Then a big smile and "Happy Halloween"
One picture was taken with a flash and shows the eyes really well, one picture was taken without the flash and shows the color in the background really well.
All really silly.
