Had a guy run out from the side of his house wearing a Leatherface mask and sporting an actual running chainsaw at one of the houses in the neighborhoods I took my son to last night......I almost ventilated him........He would wait for a group of kids to walk up to the door then come running up behind them.....saw a few of the little ones start crying, the chainsaw was quite loud. Amusing to a degree but the younger kids didn't seem to think very much of it.

That was a little too much . . .he didn't need the chainsaw.

I agree. I started to ask him about it....but what do you say to a guy in a Leatherface mask wielding a chainsaw? We just walked on past that house. Didn't seem like a good battle to fight on Halloween.
I hope someone said something. That was too drastic . . .I can understand pulling a stunt like that in a Haunted House for teens but to do that to little kids is wrong. If you hear more about this please update me. It kinda bothers me.

Was in a neighborhood close to ours, but we only go there on Halloween, so I really don't know the guy or what the deal was, most of the older kids seemed to be getting a kick out of it but it just seemed a bit much being as so many trick or treaters are younger kids....

He's lucky nobody got hurt. You don't run with chainsaws, especially around kids, especially when those kids are wearing masks or clothes they are likely to trip over.
