South Carolinian couple puts up surprisingly realistic Halloween decoration. Bunch of people thought the fire was actually real so some called the fire department.

Yeah… thats not a halloween decoration. Thats a hollywood level approach to representing a house fire haha.

Do that several times then when a fire does happen for real nobody would help. 🗿

What the Hell were they thinking?

It’s a good spider protection.

So amazing execution. That said, this is some shitty halloween decorations. Okay the house is on fire…and? How is this halloween? Give me the spooky!

It’ll be like the story of the “boy who cried wolf” if they have a real fire

Reminds me of the perpetually burning down house a woman lives in, in the movie “Synecdoche, NY”. Always flames around her, candles melted, etc. No good pic online to add to my comment though haha.

Since when does “my house is burning down” make anyone think about Halloween? The flames aren’t even spooky color. It’s just basic ass house fire color.

Judging by the look of this…

Bad idea.

This would make for an interesting free speech case.
Is this the same as yelling fire in a movie theater?

Well so would anyone, what’s Halloween themed about making your house look like it’s on fire lol

“Call 911, my house really IS on fire!!!”
“Sure, neighbor. It’s been ‘on fire’ for two weeks now. Sure looks realistic.”

thats just irresponsible

Just change the color to purple. Easy.

This is surely something only wealthy people in nice neighborhoods can get away with. I can’t imagine a universe in which the police aren’t pounding on my door to tell me to cut it out after the first 911 call reporting a meth lab explosion.

Looks like the Firefly house

I would’ve called the fire department 🖐

I hope they can change the flame led colors to like, violet. Or green.

I am sure national guard will be deployed to the area before Halloween due to all this violence…

Home owner didn’t think this one through!
Very cool though would 100% drive by often.
Pinkrainbows94 on
Haha I love it. That’s so creative. What would also be terrifying is to have Jason Voorhees walking around the house

This is fucked up.
Edit: just watched a news story about this & in a previous year this couple put a van outside in their yard that looked like it had rolled over, with a skeleton in it, & an open casket full of candy for people to pick from.
These people sound a little sick to me. As a first responder, joking about stuff like that as a gag doesn’t seem funny.

I like this, I would add some more spooky items maybe a skeleton/witch banging on the windows, with a different creature holding a gas can and cig outside. The fire on its own while well done, isn’t spooky on its own.

Hopefully they don’t actually have a house fire, the FD will think it’s just the Halloween decorations

This is kinda mid.
You need a devil mannequin or whatever walking around in those flames.

It’s a little too realistic tbh they should have paired the flames with some music 🎶🎶

Southern charm meets chaotic neutral. I’d leave flowers *and* a rubber chicken.
That decoration is lit !
They’ll be screwed if they have a real fire…

That would also signal its decoration.
