This serial killer Halloween display is a great play on the 'Change My Mind' meme

"Change our minds."

Creatively carved pumpkins are all very well and good, but if you want to go really viral this Halloween your decoration game has to be on point.

Just look at these lawn skeletons acting out a different scene each day if you want an example of how committed to the spooky season some people are.

Anyway, today's example of Halloween dedication comes in the form of a display plus sign combination spotted on a front lawn:

That image was shared in the r/funny subreddit on Thursday night. It's since been upvoted around 90,000 times.

It also got a response from the actual person behind the display, who then shared their own image in r/pics shortly after -- that photo was then upvoted over 120,000 times.

The Change My Mind meme became popular earlier this year when conservative podcaster and popular troll Steven Crowder posted a photo of himself in front of a sign that read "Male privilege is a myth" along with the prompt, "Change my mind." He was relentlessly mocked.

In case you were wondering, that cheerful bunch consists of the killer from Scream (far left), Freddy Krueger, Jason Voorhees, a "soul taker costume" (in the words of the uploader), and Mike Myers.

A+ work.
