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.”
Barbra Streisand Defends District Attorney Fani Willis: “A Woman Can Have a Private Life”
Conservative critics have been criticizing Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis, and Barbra Streisand has lately come out in favor of her. Streisand is adamant that the critiques of Willis are an unjustified attempt to damage her reputation by intruding into her private affairs.

Streisand outlined in a post on X how Willis is being unfairly scrutinized for her personal connection to Nathan Wade, a deputy attorney she employed to look into the Georgia 2020 election results. Streisand emphasized the unfair disparities that exist, posing the question of why it is acceptable for males to lead private lives yet women are subjected to harsh criticism for doing the same.
“How absurd it is for the Republicans to want to fire Fani Willis. For what purpose? Believing that a woman cannot lead a private life in addition to a career? Men engage in it frequently! How absurd is this situation? Streisand said.
Not content to stop there, Streisand also used the occasion to attack former President Trump and his allies. She emphasized that the attacks on Willis are a ploy to divert attention away from the most important details of the case, which include Trump’s purported attempt to exert pressure on the Secretary of State to rig the vote tallies in his favor and submit fictitious electors to Congress.
This ongoing dispute highlights the larger discussion of how personal and professional lives overlap, particularly when it comes to high-stakes legal and political disputes. It raises important concerns about gender equality and the particular demands made on women in leadership roles.
Barbra Streisand’s support of Fani Willis highlights the particular difficulties women have in juggling their personal and professional obligations. It serves as a heartbreaking reminder that women’s decisions to retain a private life in addition to their work obligations should not be scrutinized or judged.
In conclusion, Streisand’s remarks highlight the significance of treating all people fairly in the workplace, regardless of gender. Like men, women should be allowed to lead their lives without being subjected to unwarranted criticism. It’s a request that everyone acknowledge and deal with these prejudices in order to establish a more equal and encouraging work environment for everyone.
