Edge on Demand: Halloween Gone Too Far?

This video is no longer available.

In just two weeks, children will be skipping around neighborhoods looking for candy, and slightly older children and immature bros will be ready to scare the bejeezus out of them.  In fact, it’s already happening in some places.  As people decorate for the creepy holiday, there are plenty of decorations popping up that neighbors say have gone too far.

In particular, there’s a guy in Pittsburgh who taking heat for his incredibly creepy, and kind of realistic, yardwork.  It’s something he does every year, and the neighbors are fed up with seeing disembodied heads on meat hooks and dismembered baby dolls covered in fake blood or stuffed in cages.  Of course, he’s got all the graves and bones and all the other Halloweeny stuff.  But neighbors say their kids are scared to walk by the house to catch the bus for school.  It’s just too graphic.

So is this guy terrorizing the neighborhood with his over-the-top decor?  Or is it just harmless fun, and people need to lighten up?
