Best Yard Haunt: Vote In Illinois Patch's Poll
The winner will receive a $100 Amazon gift card. Deadline to vote is Thursday night.

ILLINOIS — It's that time again. After weeks (and sometimes months) of hard work, Illinois' spooky yards are ready for Halloween, giving fans of thrills and chills a reason to take a drive around their neighborhoods in search of local haunts.
Here at Patch, we think the hard-working Halloween decorators deserve a pat on the back. So this year, we've nominated our favorite decorated yards and are asking you, the readers, to weigh in.
Take Patch's poll and tell us: Which decorated yard is the scariest, the snazziest or just plain coolest. Voting ends Thursday night, and we'll announce the winner on Friday morning.
