Not that this house at the Summerfield end of Pleasant Ridge Road is haunted, but it does look what children who trick-or-treat will be seeing tonight. Imagine having to walk past this lawn, with the grass so bright due to light from car headlights, and into the dark shadows of a house. For many of us, this is what Halloween memories are made of, scenes like this one. In previous decades, parents would wait in the car while children walked to the front door to get the treats. Now, if children go door-to-door to trick-or-treat at all, they need to make sure they have a parent with them.
We'd love to meet the people in the above house. They have been working so hard to renovate it. We're betting there are great things in store for this property, and it is always nice when an effort is made to maintain the original character of a place.
Happy Halloween and may you get your favorite candy, and may someone in your family still be young enough for trick or treating!
It does look a bit spooky at night but bet it has a whole different feel in the daylight. I grew up in Central Africa Janis, Halloween definitely wasn't a thing there, even here in Oz it's not really that big, although it was a good thing I got a supply of lollies, I did have quite a few little monsters knocking on my door tonight 👻

It does look, at least in this light, like a repository of ghosts.
