The best displays are planned for the people walking past.
Little kids
Friendly animals, Santas and bunnies. Avoid sudden sounds and red eyes near the sidewalk.
The whole family
Trees, nutcrackers, a nativity and turkey families that every age recognizes.
Party guests
Arches and photo backdrops give guests a place to gather and take pictures.
Grown-up scares
Animated and sound-activated figures belong on the porch, where visitors choose to come close.
Tips
- Friendly up front, scary in back.
- Keep cords and stakes away from walkways.
- Turn off sound pieces at night for neighbors.
