The "Helpful Hearse" With a Coffin on Roof

The "Helpful Hearse" With a Coffin on Roof While I was on a recent road trip the most impressive Halloween street display that I saw was in Covington, Kentucky. It was amazing to walk down the street and encounter this exhibit. It consisted of over three levels of scary figures on a scaffold outside a building. The set-up also included a real hearse filled with Halloween items with a full-size coffin on the rooftop. There was also a float filled with pirate ghosts and the fragment of a ship. There was a fortune teller wagon being hauled by a life-size horse skeleton. Inside the wagon there were flashing lights and recorded scary sounds. If you felt like being generous you could contribute to this wonderful “Helpful Hearse” display by donating some can goods to charity in a bin set up on the sidewalk! This Halloween House really had it all!
