DVD projection recommendation


We decorate fairly ambitiously for Halloween, tho' generally avoid the dead stuff: no skeletons, hacked limbs or tombstones with jokey doggerel. We're inspired more by the Eastern pumpkin festivals, where you'll see 20,000 grim grinning gourds on the Main Street of a small New England town. Our yard boasts airblown inflatables, pumpkin neon signs, dozens of plug-in pumpkins, anything & everything in a pumpkin shape. All very kid-friendly & welcoming, autumnal rather than grotesque. I don't mind the gory stuff, just leave it to others.

An idea for Halloween, which got a great reaction last year.

You will need:
A DVD of IT'S THE GREAT PUMPKIN, CHARLIE BROWN
A DVD player, plus a projection unit it can plug into
A conspicuous, light-colored projection surface (like the side of our garage!)

Set the player on Chapter Repeat: the chapter that begins with Sally scaring herself with her ghost costume & ending with the "I Got a Rock" routine. Ends just before Snoopy's Red Baron routine, which in this context seemed like irrelevant filler.

"We are clearly separated by denominational differences."

"You didn't tell me you were gonna' kill it!"

"Ucch! Bucch! Poison dog lips!"

A VERY HAPPY HALLOWEEN TO ALL PEANUT-HEADS.
