To me, Halloween isn't just a feeling in the air as the temperature begins to drop. It's not just the smell of "Pumpkin Spice" and the petrichor of wet leaves. And it's not just the taste of a fresh fall apple or the latest seasonal junk food stunt. It's a nostalgic attachment to imagery and items that --when seen-- trigger a sense-memory to a time of youth, excitement and exuberance. Halloween decorations fall into the latter and, to some, these things may just be pieces of cardboard or plastic. Disposable. Temporary and signifying nothing. To me however, there are certain Halloween decorations I have a strong connection with and the Beistle Jointed Skeleton is one of them.
