I was driving in the burbs yesterday and saw a giant skeleton… like 13’ tall and the skull being 2’ wide. I said to my friend “where do they store that stuff? I’m guessing their Christmas lawn stuff is just as extreme.”

a lot of people love their holiday decor. Not how much resale you can get on a giant skeleton, but it’s not an easy lift. Seems like a good use case for storage… a few thousand a year to make you happy thinking you’re bringing holiday cheer to neighbors and kids.

These giant skeletons have become sort of common out in my rural area. I had assumed you could break them down easily into manageable pieces but since half of them seem to end up left out year round I think the answer to "where do they store that stuff?" is nowhere!

At least one house the owner seems to dress the skeleton up with current holiday attire and decorations which is an amusing solution.

That stuff can easily fit in the attic of most suburban houses I've lived in.
