Northeast Halloween horror

For the 19th year, Northeast Bethlehem resident Jeff Kaiser has his “House of Horror” set up for fans of Halloween macabre. Kaiser says that other than a completely rebuilt pirate ship and an ‘American Gothic’ display “everything is pretty much identical.” The entire display has been converted from incandescent lighting to LED, and Kaiser says electric bills that used to run about $70 for the month of October now costs only about $25. It’s a month long task assembling everything on the front lawn as he starts setting up on Labor Day weekend. During October the “House of Horror” is lit each night from 7 to 9 p.m., until Trick or Treat night when he keeps it lit until 10 p.m. and hands candy out to children. Kaiser and several fronts also dress in costumes to scare people as they view the spectacle. Above: Jeff Kaiser says he had to rebuild the pirate ship for 2020. Displays last about 5 to 6 years. The ship occupies its traditional spot at the corner of the property.
