Pa. woman turns front door into giant cookie monster
A York Township woman’s Halloween decoration consists of a Cookie Monster that swallows her entire front door.
Lisa Boll, a former landscape designer, used blue spray paint to turn her vines into the beloved Sesame Street character, reports ABC News 27. Some Styrofoam eyes and a big chocolate chip cookie complete the scene.
Boll tells ABC News that drivers often pull over with their kids to take photos.
“It was surprising how many people get a big kick out of it,” Boll told ABC News. “It’s fun for Halloween and it’s not a horror thing, so it appeals to kids under the age of 3. It’s not scary.”
Boll told ABC News she choose Cookie Monster because she’s a big fan of “Sesame Street” the show is marking its 50th anniversary.
The creative spirit strikes Boll every year about this time.
“I put some eyes on it, and teeth … it was supremely horrifying,” she told the York Daily Record. “I tried a pig, cats, but nothing took off like the Cookie Monster.”
Boll told the Daily Record she’s considering Big Bird next year.
