Registration begins on Sept. 16 and ends Oct. 28.
Those interested in entering have two categories to pick from: Spookiest and Kid-Friendly Haunt. The winners in each category will win $500 in gift cards from local businesses.
Those who enter the Spookiest category will be judged on how they use traditional Halloween items, such as pumpkins, ghosts, and witches, in order to make their space eerie, mysterious and haunting. The Kid-Friendly Haunt entrants will be judged on how fun and whimsical they make their space.
Judges, will be wearing their best costumes, will head out on Oct. 29 from 4 p.m. to 8 p.m. Entrants will be asked to keep their displays on during that time.
