NAPERVILLE, IL — One Naperville home aims to fill a "Blank Space" in the hearts of any hardcore Taylor Swift fans this season. Really, even if you're not a Swiftie or you have "Bad Blood" with Travis Kelce, you'd be remiss to miss this illuminated ode to pop music's record-breaking "Anti-Hero."

Located in the 1200 block of Atlas Lane, the attention-grabbing "Swiftmas" display is the brainchild of Amy Scott, who was inspired by her daughters, Becca, 18, and Emily, 21, according to the blog Scary Mommy. A TikTok video shared by Scary Mommy garnered millions of views shortly after it was uploaded, adding to the home's draw.

Patch editor Eric DeGrechie, who trekked with his son Gavin, 7, and wife, Natalie, to see the house, said,"It was pretty great. We drove to Naperville from Chicago. We’re a family of Swifties. We took our 7-year-old to the movie. The Swiftie House is awesome. Owners did such an amazing job. It was well worth the drive."

The home's facade and yard teem with light-up guitars, oversized album cover images and plenty of photos of Taylor Swift. A faux boom box reads "Shake It Off," a nod to one of Swift's hit songs. Atop the home, an image of Travis Kelce stands, accented with a neon-lit sign that reads "taylor's version."
