Skeleton Soup or Conjuring a New Friend? {Countdown to Halloween Day 7}

I like to hide in our display on weekends (sometimes in costume) and just listen to comments from people passing by.....yeah I hope that is not too weird but I do. One of the things I consistently hear from people is a debate on whether the Cauldron Skeleton is in fact, Making Skeleton Soup or if his is conjuring another skeleton or if he is boiling the skin off a body to make a new friend. What do you think?
