A mysterious pumpkin-headed figure looms over the edge of a brick building in Salem, dressed in a trench coat and pointing outward with a stick. The glow of orange string lights lining the roof casts shadows that highlight the figure’s carved, menacing grin. With the dark blue sky behind it, the display feels like something out of a Halloween story. This decoration adds to the festive and eerie charm that fills Salem’s streets in the fall.
