Mum of four Kirsty Marriott of Southwell Lane, Kirkby, said last year the family were utterly amazed at how many people came to see the halloween display in their front garden, that this year they are upping the ante.

She said: "It was our first year at this house and we thought we'd do a little display - e had no idea how huge it would be and how many would come and look at it.

"He's just a big kid and he loves to build zombies and stuff - it's just been manic," added Kirsty.

This year, the family are also hoping that their halloween attraction can be used to help raise funds for an important local cause. They're supporting Iyra's fund - hoping to help young Iyra Austin who has cerebral palsy and who's family are trying to raise £50,000 for a much-needed operation.

Kirsty added: "We're not charging people or anything, but if anyone wants to make a donation it would be appreciated. "

Decorations will be going up over the course of the weekend ready for Halloween on Monday, October 31.
