In appreciation of Party City...
I just got back from checking them out, and, to their credit, they have some genuinely GOOD Halloween decorations. I mean, actually creepy/scary stuff, of halfway decent quality.
Nice to see somebody is steering away from the litany of lipstick-clad skeletons, smiling pumpkins, and ugly but unscary witches making that obnoxious and clearly electronic wailing sound, that supermarkets and department stores seem to favor.
Party City has things like hideous hanging clowns (really disturbing ones!), decrepit angels of death, realistic-ish bats and rats. Even the cliche stuff (dead hung pirates, pirate skeletons, etc) is done as well as cliche stuff can be done.
Color me impressed, that little visit to look at this year's offerings was very fun.
