It’s spooky season—a time for fun, scares, and a bit of darkness. During this time of year, we expect to see creepy decorations everywhere. It’s not yet time for the cheerful holiday season.
However, just because Halloween is near doesn’t mean we can’t show kindness. One Halloween fan shared this message in a TikTok video that has since gone viral.
Salena Webb loves Halloween. She is a mother of four from South Carolina, and like many others, she celebrates by decorating her yard with Halloween items. Salena created a whole graveyard scene in her front yard, complete with ghosts, spiderwebs, pumpkins, a witch, tombstones, and skeletons carrying a casket. It took a lot of time to set up the display. But when her neighbor came to ask her to take it down, she agreed.
Her neighbor asked her to remove some decorations to make things easier for his elderly father.
Salena shared the moment her neighbor visited her to make the request in a TikTok video. In the video, the neighbor explains, “Hey, I know you’re celebrating Halloween. My dad just got diagnosed with lung cancer. He thinks the decorations are a bit scary.” He then points to the graveyard scene and asks, “Would you mind taking just the casket out?”
Salena felt sympathetic right away. Since her neighbor’s dad often spends time in his garage, which faces her yard, she understood why removing the casket was important. “I didn’t want to be a reminder of what could happen if he doesn’t beat cancer,” she told Insider. “I didn’t want to add stress to someone else’s life.”
Salena removed the casket and gave the skeletons badminton rackets instead. She moved the more scary decorations to her backyard. “I was a little sad at first,” Salena wrote in her TikTok caption, “But I realized that taking away the casket wouldn’t hurt me, but it might help my neighbor feel better as he deals with this news. Kindness is free, and compassion goes a long way.”
Many people praised Salena for her kindness. She posted the video and asked her followers what they would have done in her situation. While some said they wouldn’t have taken down their decorations, many praised Salena for her compassion.
“Now this is what being a good neighbor is all about. Kindness doesn’t cost anything. Thank you!” one user commented.
Another person wrote, “This was beautifully handled. The world needs more people like you! God bless you!”
Salena’s neighbor also appreciated her gesture. After she took down the casket, she brought him a card and some balloons. Even though there was a language barrier between them, she could tell he was thankful. He told her, “You’re good people.”
Halle Berry & Gabriel Aubry’s Daughter, 16, Towers over Mom — Fans Divided over Their New Pics
Nahla Ariela Aubry, the daughter of Halle Berry and Gabriel Aubry, is sixteen years old. Her birthdate on March 16, 2008, meant that she would always be in the public eye due to the fame of her parents. Nahla has developed over the years while being closely observed by both her parents and her fans.
Online comments to pictures of Nahla looming over her mother have been divided lately. While some talked on her choices in clothing, others concentrated on her development and metamorphosis. Nahla’s development from a curly-haired toddler to a tall teenager has been extensively captured in pictures and public appearances.
Nahla enchanted the audience as a toddler with her kind disposition and strong relationship with her parents. She started to show signs of her changing personality and style by the time she was five years old.
When Berry accused Aubry of whitening and straightening their daughter’s naturally curly hair in an effort to change her appearance, Nahla found herself embroiled in a major scandal in 2013. This was a challenging time that brought the dynamics of the family to light.
By 2020, Nahla had grown significantly in stature and maturity. She had changed into a composed, self-assured young lady at fifteen, frequently appearing to be taller than her mother. Berry posted pictures of Nahla on her 15th birthday, highlighting her development and maturity. Berry wrote in the caption of a photo, “My mini me (but not so mini anymore).” Nahla’s development over the years, highlighted by her public appearances and treasured family times, demonstrates her parents’ unwavering love and support.
