Myself and the wife have noticed on our travels around Pennsylvania and especially down south, these big stars on houses and barns. Is there some meaning to them or are they just for decoration?

I think it's code for zombie invasion safe house.

Funny that you posted this. I was in PA two weeks ago and noticed the stars on numerous houses and barns. I never did get an straight answer what they were for. The area I was in was heavily Menonite FWIW.

Think they used to pain "hex" signs on the sides of barns.

I know exactly what you're talking about. Tons of people have them- not like the stuff the Amish put on their barns, but just a big 'ol tin star.

If you think its funny now, drive back the same way in a year or two, and see how many of them have marks on the siding where rusty water runs out of the stars.

I see these stars all the time on suburban yuppie houses here in liberal left-wing Massachusetts. Invariably, they are red. Go figure.
