Nashville Yard Nails It With Morgan Wallen-Inspired “Skeleton Crushed By Chair” Halloween Decorations
Now that is how you ring in the Halloween season in Nashville.
I don’t know about you, but I love “Spooky Season.” The candy, the costumes, the scary decorations… it all comes together to make the fall season that much better. And nothing says “Happy Halloween” like using some skeletons in your front yard to make fun of Morgan Wallen and his infamous chair-throwing incident.
By now, I’m sure you’ve heard all about what that went down at Eric Church’s downtown Nashville bar, Chief’s, last year (if you haven’t heard about it, you must be living under a rock). The country music superstar was arrested and charged with three counts of felony reckless endangerment and one count of disorderly conduct after throwing a chair off the roof of the building.
In December of last year, Wallen pled guilty to misdemeanor reckless endangerment in Davidson County court. He was ultimately sentenced to two years of probation and seven days in jail, to be served at a DUI education center. The story has come up again (a lot) recently because the entirety of the body cam footage from his arrest has slowly but surely become public.
My favorite clip that’s hit the internet is probably the one where Morgan Wallen – from the back of the squad car – tells the officer to turn off Chris Young:

Pretty funny, eh?
Well, if you thought that was comical, you are going to love what these residents of East Nashville did with their front yard for Halloween. They decided to strike the Morgan Wallen iron while it was hot and made an entire Halloween display – called “Morgue-an Wallen” – that poked fun at the country star’s chair throwing incident.
On one side of the yard, a band of skeleton’s is set up to look like they are performing – drummer, guitar player, bass player, mullet-wearing skeleton and all. There’s also a speaker somewhere on the property playing “Last Night” on a loop, which I’m sure the neighbors love.
On the other, there’s a sign that has “Morgue-an Wallen” that’s a backdrop for the main event. What’s that, you ask? A beheaded skeleton that was crushed by a chair, presumably thrown from somewhere higher up. No one was actually hit with the chair that Morgan Wallen threw off the roof of Chief’s, but in this Halloween story, a skeleton got crushed by it.
There’s also cowboy hat and bandana wearing skeletons hanging out on top of the house. All in all, it’s a wonderfully done Halloween display that perfectly utilizes the yard skeleton craze that’s currently captivating much of the country.

Brilliant work.
Creativity always deserves to be in the spotlight, and this Nashville home really nailed it with their Halloween decorations this year. Everyone on the internet is loving what they did… though I’m not sure how Morgan Wallen would feel about it.The post Nashville Yard Nails It With Morgan Wallen-Inspired “Skeleton Crushed By Chair” Halloween Decorations first appeared on Whiskey Riff.
