This is a message that does not announce Halloween a stat holiday at Solarbotics - but enhances the Halloween spirit by bringing you a fancy porch or window decoration idea.

And after you are done with Halloween-ing - you can stick the electronics back into your Pum Lantern and keep using it normally.
