Halloween '21: Submit Your Asbury Park Home To Patch's Scare Tour

ASBURY PARK, NJ – It's that time of year again when goblins, crazy clowns, butchered bodies, and zombies start popping up on lawns all over Asbury Park.

Patch is compiling a list of Halloween yard displays that shock and amaze. We're also looking for kid-friendly, whimsical Halloween-decorated yards where little ones aren't likely to be chased by someone with an ax.

If your yard is worth a drive-by this Halloween, shoot us an email. We'll keep adding to the 2021 tour o' haunted yards leading up to Halloween, which is a Sunday this year.

We prefer that the homeowner or an immediate neighbor or close relative submit their yard.

In the email, please make sure to include

• The exact address of the yard, including the town.
• The dates and hours when your display will be available for viewing, so people aren't ringing your doorbell or bothering your neighbors in the middle of the night.
• Does your display have a name? Be sure to include it, or we can help you make one up.
• Tell us about any special effects, live actors, walk-throughs, or other features that make your display extra scary.
• Does your display have a Facebook page or website? If so, make sure to include the links.
• If you are collecting donations for a charity, food pantry, or pet shelter?
• A phone number (not for publication) in case Patch needs to contact you.
• What kind of Halloween candy are you passing out to trick-or-treaters?

Please don't submit a Halloween-decorated home you recall from five or 10 years ago. That person may no longer be decorating their house for Halloween, and we don't want people wasting gas.

IMPORTANT: By submitting a photo, you're giving Patch permission to publish it for this feature and future stories.

Send your information and pictures to brian.harris@patch.com with the subject line "Patch Scare Tour."

We'll be running the list and updating it every weekend until Halloween.
