It may be spring, but it's still spooky season for some in North St. Paul
While it may technically be March, North St. Paul, Minnesota's spooky season is just beginning.
It all started with just three skeletons setup by Arianna Davis that quickly snowballed into something much bigger.
"I just like skeletons, it's a way to express myself," Davis smiled.
A few weeks ago, she received an anonymous letter, calling the display disturbing, out of season and demanding her to take it down or they would.
Instead, she took to Facebook voicing her concerns about this note. The post quickly garnered hundreds of like and comments with the people from the neighborhood expressing their support for Davis.
Before she knew it, neighbors jumped in and started putting up their own skeletons.
From three 12 feet skeletons to a skeleton on playground, and even one hanging out in a hammock with chickens around.
"It's fun seeing the community come together over something so negative," Davis said.
The Skelton saga, turned into a fundraiser for a local food shelf and local business jumped in creating Christmas skeleton ornaments and tumblers.
In just a few days, more than $1,200 was raised for the bookshelf which will help provide meals for families in need.
What started with a few skeletons and a neighbor's complaint turned into a heartwarming example of community spirit and creativity.
