Not quite 5 foot, but I did find this guy at Walgreens for 10 bucks.

I named him Chancho.

I got so many skeletons from the size of small to large. I think I've enought to buy more of them! :?

By the way, I got homemade graveyard heads and tombstones.... yeah! It's enough for me to make any more of them! Next thing.... I will make baby coffins b/c I've not yet made this year, maybe next year. Me and my gf are going to Halloween party at her best friend's house. :roll:

Ha! Ha! Love the pic!

A few years ago I bought a skeleton and removed the arm. When I was driving down the freeway, I would watch the cars I passed to see if there was a young'un in there. If there was, I would wait till they looked over at me and wave at them with the arm, keeping my real arm low where they couldn't see it. Reactions were priceless.

Graveyard is always a good source. Just don't get caught!

I've thought of this before. My wife's not to keen on the idea though! :lol:

BTW, great story about you waving at the youngsters with the skeleton arm! :lol: :lol: :lol:

I don't think I saw those at mine. But they have a robed skeleton that layed on the ground and popped out at you. Did anyone see the clowns and vampires that popped out of coffins?

Yeah, I saw those before I found the skeletons. They had 4 foot vampires and witches too.

Yes, many people are 4' tall, but I think 'life-sized' should be 6'.
All you that doth my grave pass by,
As you are now so once was I,
As I am now so you must be,
Prepare for death & follow me.

Saw those too. There was a bag of bones they had with a 1:1 size skull and leg/arm bones. Might go back and buy a few, they looked pretty realistic.

Walgreens has the most realistic skulls I've seen at a Halloween store.

Thats a sweet skeleton you got Castle with the right kind of lighting it could look really scary.
It's not our fault, they pulled a mind scramble on us. They opened their eyes and talked.

This has nothing to do with the Walgreens skeleton. I just love Edgar Frog's name :) Hee

I've seen a Jack 'O Lantern with light inside with its head turning around! I love it! I'm still thinking about buying it, maybe two of them! ;)
