Halloween came early to Wayburne Crescent in 91原创 this year, thanks to two brothers who wanted to do something to show appreciation for the people who have kept the community going during the COVID-19 pandemic.
For five years, 91原创 residents Tony and Peter Beier have been drawing crowds with their elaborate displays on the front Lawn of Peter鈥檚 home, going a little bigger every time.
This year, they set up early, on Saturday, Oct. 10.
鈥淲e thought we鈥檇 do somethings special for essential workers,鈥� Tony explained.
鈥淚t may be a little early for a Halloween show, but it鈥檚 Thanksgiving and we are very thankful for all that [they] do.鈥�

Songs playing on the low-power signal are COVID-themed tunes including a satirical ditty based on the classic 鈥淢onster Mash鈥� 鈥� with rewritten lyrics that go 鈥測ou need a mask/I need a COVID mask.鈥�
Peter is hoping word gets out among essential workers in the community, who are under a lot of stress.
鈥淎t least, they can drive by and hopefully enjoy it [the display],鈥� Peter remarked.
Everyone else is invited to enjoy the lights starting the following Saturday, Oct. 17, Peter said.
It originally started on the front lawn of Tony鈥檚 condo building, then relocated to Peter鈥檚 front yard.
The brothers won鈥檛 be handing out treats until the actual night of Halloween, and there will be some changes made to the way candy is placed in bags because of the need to maintain safe distances.
鈥淲ere going to use a six-foot, 4 inch pipe [to slide the treats into bags],鈥� Peter elaborated.
