Each year, local Halloween decorating has become dracularrly more spooktacular! Thanks to fine fall weather and increasingly elaborate product availability on store shelves, combined with human creativity that has grown exponentially, a banner year is in store for Halloween faithful of all ages. One of the areas not to be missed in Camrose when out celebrating the night of ghouls, ghosts, and the anticipation of what will wind up in your pillowcase or plastic jack o' lantern, is a very specific destination in Victoria Park. Tucked away on a normally quiet crescent at 5409-63 Street is the freakishly grand decor from the minds and hands of the Poulin family. Don’t turn your back on making this visit! Meanwhile, just a few doors south is an equally compelling spooky spot. An annual Halloween favourite decorating destination for hundreds of costumed candy-seekers and their parents is 5402-63 Street. This sensational scene is the creation of the Saufert family. On October 31, you can give as well as receive at each of these locations. Both families will be scaring up donations for the NeighborAid Food Bank.
