Hey everyone! Long time no see!

It’s been a LONG year for a lot of us – but we’re super excited that we’re back for the 2020 Season! We’ve changed up the display a little bit this Halloween, but will be sticking with all of the same songs you’ve come to love the past few years!

Here’s some photos from our current setup! We’re currently running 6:00PM to 10:00PM everyday through November 1st. We have a food donation box in our yard supporting the Northern Illinois Food Bank.

Still adding more, so stay tuned 🙂
