Once upon a time, in a small village nestled deep within the enchanted forest, lived a witch like no other. This witch was not your typical pointy-hat-wearing, broomstick-riding kind of witch. No, this witch was something truly extraordinary. Standing at a towering height of 12 feet, she commanded attention wherever she went. The villagers were both fascinated and terrified by the witch's immense stature. Some whispered that she had gained her extraordinary height through dark and forbidden magic, while others believed she was blessed by the gods themselves.

What’s More Amazing than a Lowe’s Witch in New York

Have you ever walked into a business or a store and saw something that immediately caught your attention? This happens to me on a regular basis. I do have a "shiny thing squirrel quality" but seriously I am talking about you walking in and seeing something you weren't expecting.

Over the weekend I went to Lowes in New Paltz and was surprised to see that they have started decorating for Halloween. I am in agreement you need a plan but I wasn't expecting to see a 10-foot automated Witch for your front yard. She was actually standing next to a pretty cool skeleton band. I think the whole thing retails for $600 I'll check back on that fact.

Even though I was surprised to see The Witch in July and was busy trying to figure out how I would get it in the car it still doesn't top something I first saw in the 1980s and enjoy seeing every time I go to Candlestock in Woodstock, New York.

If you have been to Candlestock the longtime candle store in Woodstock, New York that has been "Dripping Wax Since 1969" then you know what I am talking about. If you have never been let me take a moment to explain.

Candlestock is a wonderful local candle store that makes and sells candles in the Hudson Valley and they have for decades. Inside the store, they have melting proof of how long they have been keeping the candles burning. In a world where people may be looking for dripless candles, Candlestock proudly offers ones that drip.

The Candle Mountain as it is referred to on the official Candlestock website started burning in 1969 with just one drip candle over 50 years ago. It now stands 6 feet tall. If you get a chance to go to Woodstock you have to stop in to see it.

Reviews for "The Tall Witch's Legacy: How the 12-Footer's Story Still Enthralls Today"

1. Jennifer - 2 out of 5 stars

I was really looking forward to reading "A Witch That Is 12 Feet in Stature" as I am a fan of fantasy novels, but I was disappointed. The concept of a giant witch sounded intriguing, but it fell flat for me. The story lacked depth and complexity, and I found it difficult to connect with the characters. Additionally, the writing style felt amateurish and inconsistent. Overall, I was left feeling underwhelmed and wishing for more substance in the plot and character development.

2. Matthew - 2 out of 5 stars

I had high hopes for "A Witch That Is 12 Feet in Stature," but unfortunately, it didn't live up to my expectations. While the idea of a towering witch was unique, the execution was lacking. The story felt disjointed and rushed, making it hard to fully immerse myself in the narrative. The character arcs felt underdeveloped, and I didn't feel invested in their journey. The writing style was also lackluster, with clunky dialogue and excessive use of clichés. Overall, I was left unsatisfied by this novel and wouldn't recommend it to others.

3. Rebecca - 1 out of 5 stars

"A Witch That Is 12 Feet in Stature" was a huge letdown for me. The premise may have been intriguing, but the execution was poor. The story lacked a clear direction and seemed to meander aimlessly. The characters were underdeveloped, and their motives felt shallow. The writing itself was also subpar, with numerous grammatical errors and awkward sentence structures. I struggled to stay engaged and ultimately found myself skimming through the pages in search of something interesting. This book did not live up to my expectations, and I would not recommend it to fellow readers.
