OCALA, FL (352today.com) – We’ve got a daytime look at some of the homes you’ll see while trick-or-treating in historic downtown Ocala tonight.
Ocala Woodfields & Historic District organizes the Fall & Halloween Decorating Contest. Visitors will be treated to a spooktacular view as you make your way from door to door in search of confectionary delights.
The contest, sponsored by National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI) Marion County and Hiers-Baxley Community Care, boasts 25 decorated homes which are voted on by the public.
All contestants have a numbered yard sign that corresponds with a number on this map on Decorate Ocala’s website. Follow the turn-by-turn directions to view historic homes covered in everything from skeletons and bats to pumpkins and gourds, some scarier than others.
This event is in its third year. Categories include Spookiest Decor, Most Playful, Fall Festive, and Pumpkin Design.
All displays must be “kid-friendly” and not “crazy-scary or disrespectful.” Decor must also be visible from the street and be placed outside.
