Adam Rickards and his mum, Ellen Kendall, spend weeks every year putting up decorations - from mechanical clowns to gigantic spiders - to raise money for charity.
And this year was no exception, as their home on Poplar Avenue was overran by skeletons, cackling witches, cobwebs and even a 'body shop', where plastic 'limbs' dangled from the ceiling.
The pair flung open their doors to dozens of trick-or-treaters on Halloween night, who waited anxiously for their turn to walk around the spooky house.
Adam - who said he spent £1,800 on decorations last year - booked two weeks off work to start work on transforming the home in time for the event.
The 26-year-old told the Express & Star: "We love doing it. It has been in my life since I was a kid. I have got bigger and it has got bigger with me.
"It is for the community, we do it for a good cause but obviously it is not everyday that you see something like this. For us it is normal but for everyone else it's not."
