2022 Status: In Limbo. The haunt returned in 2021 after a three-year hiatus, but as of mid-October no decorations were in place for 2022. We are awaiting word from the owner about plans for this Halloween.

The Western House of Darkness is a long-running amateur Halloween yard haunt that features scary decorations with a few animatronics, music and sound effects. Decorations are usually on display by mid-October. On Halloween Night, the owners throw a neighborhood potluck party, offer treats for the local kids, and dress in costume to deliver a scare or two.

Starting in 2018, the home haunt went on hiatus for a few years, returning in 2021.

This way to the graveyard, but watch out for the giant inflatable kitty, wit moving head.

The Western House of Darkness sits quietly tucked between local businesses – its decor a strange anomaly amid a hair salon and a fishing tackle store.

A witch-like figure dangles from the local bait-and-tackle store.

Left to Right: Michael Myers, Jason Vorhees, Nosferatu (or Graf Orlock, if you prefer), and Regan Teresa MacNeil, with a clown and a skeleton in back.

Does this guy ever get tired of screaming? Note the Frankenstein Monster in the background.

An intimidating vampire bat rests in front of the yard, waiting for nightfall.

Oh, no! Demented Babies haunt the front yard, too!

More strange beings lurking in the yard, including a two-headed girl.
