Spooky store windows entice Bay Ridge shoppers
Students decorate shops for Halloween
The shoes normally displayed in the front window of Areosoles, a store on 86th Street in Bay Ridge, had to share space with “Autumn Night,” a painting depicting terrifying bats flying past a full moon on their way to perform evil deeds.
Other store windows in Bay Ridge were filled with paintings of zombies, witches, haunted houses, grave yards and other frightening images.
But if you think the dark images scared away customers, you would be wrong. It was just the opposite. Shoppers loved it!
