He's back (last year he did Thriller) and this time with Nightmare Before Christmas added to the mix.

Either his neighbors are very understanding or they are figuring out how to make his death look like an accident.

I would love for him to move in my neighborhood - no one around ever decorates for holidays...

If I recall the guy is an ex-disney lighting guy and was the one who did the Guitar Hero setup with lights years ago.
I wonder if he is selling kits now, there is a house in the next town that has an exact replica of one of the faces and a less impressive version of the same song.

At first I was thinking "Well, enjoy that electric bill" but I was mesmerized by the entire thing. It's brilliant!

Come over to Michigan and Indiana. Not sure when Halloween decorating got to be so popular, but it is rivaling Christmas now. I will have to take a few photos of two of the houses on our street. The one has full sized coffins and another has gravestones that remind me a lot of the Haunted Mansion...CULayter, Izzygone...

That's amazing. If he were my neighbor though, I wouldn't be upset at the display (it's his power bill), but I would be upset at the bottleneck that will become the street in front of his house.
I saw a special about the extreme Christmas lights that people do and in one neighborhood traffic snarled for blocks on either side of the neighborhood from people wanting to see the exhibition. There is one house in my neighborhood that goes all out for Christmas, he starts decorating in mid-November. His electric bill is near $1800 for the month of December (of course we have some of the highest utility rates in the State of Florida anyway).

If you notice in the videos, there are no cars lining up outside his house...

I think that had more to do with it probably being the first run of it. Last year the news noted how people were flocking in droves to see the lights and you need a car (or at least a radio) to listen as the sound is broadcast.

That could explain it.
