Tonight’s the night! Come by now that the rain has stopped! Tune to 89.9 or walk over to the sidewalk for the best view!

Four shows rotating tonight, and we’ll mix the start order so folks can see them all before the month is done!

Happy (late) Spooky Season! The Welter Family Holiday House will begin shows a little late this year, with shows beginning October 15th.

We will run Thurs-Sunday starting at 7:00!

This year, we are going to dig into the vault and run all our previous shows on a loop. So every time you visit it’s likely you’ll see a different show!

Nightmare Before Christmas
Oogie Boogie
Wednesday
Hocus Pocus
Beetlejuice

Thr Welter Family Holiday House is ready for Spooky Season and we’re revisiting our very first show!

We have learned quite a bit in six years so giving “This is Halloween” an update sounded fun this year.

We’ve also been visited by a special boogie man who will stand guard of the front door all month!

Shoes are running Thursday-Sunday again this year so come visit starting 7:30 on October 2nd! Shows run every 15 minutes.

Neighbor cars might be parked in the street so we highly encourage you to park and come sit on the sidewalk if the weather cooperates!

Fun write-up about the Holiday House in the Shaw Local media publication today!

“It’s showtime.” Quickly becoming a Halloween tradition in Yorkville, a neighborhood house with a spook-tacular projection show celebrating the ghost with the most, has community members crying out “Beetlejuice. Beetlejuice. Beetlejuice.”

Lydia’s celebrating! We’re live for the season!

We currently have a few cars that park near the front of our house at night so it seems like people are already waiting for the show - we recommend passing first to see if there is one of the prime spots right in front!
