An Atherton couple has something “scary” for everyone at their house this Halloween – with a display full of “creepy graveyards, werewolves and spiders.” Lauren Allister, 30, and Paul Hilton, 36, are bringing the “screams” at their Powys Street home. People can see their display through to November 1.
Lauren said: “We wanted to do everything from dragons, werewolves, spiders to clowns, and haunted graveyards. “So we could make sure everyone's scared. “People can look forward to a sensory experience.
“There will be smoke, bubbles, things jumping out at them. “When people scream, it's kind of a good thing. “I love horror and jump scares.
