Skeleton Grove
They came for Halloween… and stayed for the fall color.
A group of towering skeletons, each over 10 feet tall, have risen from the dead and wandered into Northeast Ohio in search of the perfect place to celebrate the season. After taking a shortcut through the Arboretum, they decided this was the place to stay.
