#21 Halloween Decorations Destroyed
My wife and I proudly display a bunch of skeletons at our home off Derby Square every year, and this morning we awoke—once again—to more property damage. There is no way to know if these folks are locals or just passing through, but please be respectful. We want to help tourists and residents alike enjoy Halloween without all our stuff getting broken. Also, they did this right in front of a security camera with a sign.

#34 Neighbor Karen Gets Triggered By Halloween Decorations
So, my sister enjoys getting into the Halloween spirit and putting creepy decorations in her yard. One of those decorations happens to be a skeleton zombie baby. Well, apparently, this is super inconsiderate because sometimes babies pass away, and this trauma could be relived when someone sees a plastic zombie baby.
