FORGOTTEN HISTORY: Halloween fanatics splash 2 000 transforming home into interactive haunted house - The Untold Story

A couple who love Halloween so much they begin planning their decorations months in advance have found a way to create spook-tacular memories for their local community, by turning their ordinary home into a full-blown haunted house. Lorna Smith, 30, and her girlfriend, Carly Jennings, 34, are self-described Halloween 'fanatics', and will each year transform their home ahead of the spooky season.

Having both loved dressing up and going trick-or-treating as children, for the past three years, Lorna and Carly have opened their own home to members of the public on Halloween night, spending two months beforehand decking it with creepy decorations. The pair have previously opted for themes such as creepy carnival and Greckans Gulch, and have this year opted for a 'mega ghost ship', creating a masterpiece that looks straight out of the Pirates of the Caribbean movies.
