Can’t Creep Up!
November 1st, 2025
Time was when I used to knock myself out decorating the house for Halloween. However, nowadays I’m having trouble getting into the spirit, so to speak. For one thing, it’s now possible to buy such things as a fifteen-foot-tall skeleton at Home Depot, or a talking vampire at Lowe’s. For another, no one hereabouts can top Ammon Smith, whose annual displays are constructed entirely from odds and ends. Here are just a few of his recent installations.
