Every year the Manitou Springs Chamber of Commerce asks the businesses to participate in the Skeleton Craze during the month of October. If you have been a long time follower of my blog, you know that I am the self appointed chronicler of the skeletons. I have been keeping records on them since the craze began in 2016. This year to assist the Chamber, I personally visited all the businesses to encourage them to register. I am also a judge which I take very seriously. I have the first of the skeletons to show you.
This beauty is from the MAC. It sits atop the front door. You can see at night it is illuminated.
This is so super cool - the MAC has really upped their game this year. I think it is gonna be an awesome skeleton craze.

The Manitou Springs Heritage Center pays tribute to our favorite dead gal Emma Crawford.
Green Horse Gallery created these lovers in a most passionate moment. Or is it a vampire with a victim? Or perhaps it is murder. What do you think?
Some impressive displays indeed! Green Horse Gallery's is certainly open to interpretation, but I prefer to view it as a romantic scene.
ReplyDeleteGlad you are sticking to the positive you romantic.
DeleteThese are all great! And what a HAPPY Emma Crawford skelly. From the creepy to the funny, these displays have it all. I think that last one is a vampire's kiss . . . .
ReplyDeleteThat is certainly a possibly but that vamp will be sadly disappointed as the victim appears to lack blood.
DeleteThe winged one on the wall is great. A lot of work went into that.
ReplyDeleteIt's my favorite so far - a real work of art.
DeleteThe skeleton with bat wings genuinely looks like a monster invented by my brother in our Dungeons and Dragons campaign.
ReplyDeleteIt is the thing of nightmares.
