HALLOWEEN 2024: Our first featured display – R & B, ‘just getting started’

| Halloween | West Seattle news

Earlier this week, we published our annual request for pics of must-see West Seattle Halloween displays – and now that the big night is less than four weeks away, it’s time to start showing them! Among the first displays shown to us is the one in the pic above and video below, from Halloween devotées R & B (aka Ron & Brian), who report, “We’re not even close to being finished yet but we’ve got something up on 47th between Hanford and Hinds.”

If you have a Halloween display to show off, send your pic(s) and location – doesn’t have to be the exact address, as long as people can find you if they want a firsthand look – to westseattleblog@gmail.com – thank you!

Bring it on, West Seattle!! October 5, 2024 (6:41 pm)

Creepy! Those skulls look like they have black legs and can crawl!

Oh, that’s great! I had never looked at them that way before but now I can’t unsee it! It’s a couple of saw horses with some “crime scene” tape from Spirit Halloween to create sort of a barrier for the driveway. I thought that was too boring so I added the skulls. Now I’m so happy that they DO look like they’re ready to crawl away. My husband said we should have a pumpkin carving contest to line the driveway with real pumpkins, I’m just waiting for him to get around to polishing the idea and post it here on WSB (I told him I was going to say this here, his response was “…the pressure!”

  The crime scene tape is a nice touch, R-n-B, and the skulls on the saw horses look like the crab-walking demons from horror movies – apparently a “happy mistake.” Can’t wait to see all your hard work in-person tonight after dark.

Yay! Thanks for the kudos, folks! We LO-O-OVE Halloween (can you tell?), it’s probably the one special season we look forward to the most every single year. We’re fiendishly obsessed with one-upping our own selves every year with the hope that we inspire our neighbors to “bring it on!” Happy Halloween! P.S. To the family that was taking pictures as we pulled up, sorry we didn’t say hello, we were trying to sneak more Halloween stuff into the house without anyone seeing. We’ve got so much more in store for you!

That house is on one of my running routes and I love the display!

Same! It’s one of my favorites. Thank you for keeping it spooky for us in the AM. Sometimes them runs can get boring.

  We love this! This year we tried to create a more visible solution for our cords crossing the sidewalk so we bought cord protectors with bright yellow markings that would be easier to see for people walking/running down our side of the street. Glad you all like the decor!

@ R-N-B: What an amazing display! Absolutely love it. If I can ask, where did you find those stacked skulls?Thanks!Ken

Hey Ken! Home Depot, and we were just there again last night to grab a few things, they still had some in stock.
