We are at the end of the walkway and I have a limited space to show the halloween decors. But I do put them up every year, just so the kids know then can safely knock and get their treats Smiling

Closer look of the two topiaries with decor:

My artificial pumpkins as usual by the low adobe wall, beside our cycad. I just add strobe lights later so it casts an eerie night time glow:

So the kids can see from the far end of the walkway:

On the other end, so they can see if this particular walkway has something for them:

Our front windows are ready to greet them too: I just turned around the orange boo decor so it can be seen on the photo, but it is really placed facing out, two clivia plants flanking both windows, well, that is their normal growing area indoors. By the window there are LED battery powered candles with sensors that light up at night. Have added two halloween solar dancing decors there a zombie and scarecrow solar decor, so during daytime it dances along with the other solar decors.

The grim reaper at the doorway, it makes an eerie Happy Halloween greeting with flashing red eyes, motion sensitive:

I do hope the kids can make it tonight, hope the rains will not deter them. Otherwise we will get the sugar high with the chocolates we have here. Hilarious!
