HUH?-loween
I wonder if it's only in the Philippines that people
have both Christian and pagan images together
celebrated in one spot?

Probably inspired by the "Jeepers Creepers" horror flick

Red-eyed Monster?
Not at all ... just a dog-tired beagle after a long day.

Tikbalang
It isn't really. It's a sculpture of a horse in someone's
garden overlooking the street. But in the dimly lit
streets on this week before Halloween, it could very
well pass for a
tikbalang — a monster from Philippine
folklore with the head and torso of a horse but is
human from the waist down.

All-out for Halloween -3
This house's occupants had better not come home
staggering drunk or they'll trip and fall right on that
dead monster lying on the steps of the front gate!

All-out for Halloween -2
This Halloween tableau occupies the entire frontage
of this house. That huge figure of the Grim Reaper
or what we call Kamatayan is way taller than the
streetlamp beside it!

All-out for Halloween -1
Man, this house is really going for broke for Halloween!
Is there a neighborhood contest I don't know about?
Trust me, this household will win, what with "monsters"
bigger-than-lifesize imaginatively "created" ... like the
hound baying at the large full moon ... 2 goblins at the
fence whispering ... and that tall-as-a-house but
cigar-less
kapre!
