MINNEOLA, Fla. – A Halloween setup in Minneola, showcasing skeletons in a dance, has sparked debate among locals. Dubbed the “skeleton strip club,” some argue it’s unsuitable for kids on their way to school.

The display, featuring skeletons posed provocatively around a pole, has split opinions. While some appreciate it as light-hearted festive fun, others feel it crosses the line for a family-oriented area.

“Woohoo! Let’s have some fun!” exclaimed Gabreala, who resides across from the display.

She shared with News 6 that her children are entertained by the “dancing” skeletons, noting, “They enjoy watching the skeletons dance. We don’t see any issue with it.”

However, the decorations have sparked heated debates on neighborhood social media pages, with some residents expressing strong opposition.

“I don’t see stripping as art. Whether it’s skeletons or cartoons, I wouldn’t want my kids exposed to sexual innuendos,” one resident posted on the neighborhood’s social media page.

Others defended the display, questioning whether the interpretation was too subjective. “If you want to see it as sexual, that’s your take. Does it show the skeleton removing clothes? How do you know if it’s a female or male skeleton?” another resident responded.

When contacted about the controversial display, the neighborhood’s Homeowners’ Association (HOA) stated it cannot take action against the decorations.

“Unfortunately, the HOA cannot do anything about this. Halloween decorations are allowed, and residents can put up whatever holiday decorations they prefer,” the HOA responded to a concerned resident. They advised waiting until after Halloween, when the display will be removed.

Gabreala, who supports the display, expressed more concern about other types of Halloween decorations. “I’m afraid when they put up a lot of scary things with no head, something like that. But this is so fun! There’s no problem here!”

The display is expected to remain in place through Halloween weekend, continuing to generate discussion in this Central Florida community about where to draw the line between holiday fun and neighborhood appropriateness.
