Halloween is a sacred time of the year for your old friend Absolute Unit. While many holidays have become commercialized and water-downed versions of themselves, Absolute Unit likes to keep it as real as possible when he goes out there to celebrate. But not, you know, too real. He does not (intentionally) take part in any pagan traditions or sacrifices in the name of Samhain or what have you. So instead he just makes his house as spooky as possible. None of these inflatable ghosts or skulls on the yard, lit up by some massive spotlight. No, instead his yard features a cavalcade of horrible sights and sounds that would scare even the most seasoned of trick or treaters. Bodies trying to crawl out of the ground. Smoke machines sprinkled throughout to provide some spooky mist. Wireless speakers blasting haunting noises and screams to help set the mood. And then once you get to the porch, you have one final scare. Absolute Unit, himself, dressed as some sort of demon. You think its a prop, but no. He jumps up, scaring you out of your wits. Then you get some king sized candy bars for your trouble.
