We are listing a few impressive displays here. We know that there are more, and we will add to this list as long as we hear about the homeowner or resident that they would like to be listed, or if they use a website or social media to publicly promote their display. We will share as much or as little as you want!
If you do go to visit these, please be considerate of the residents, who have put so much time into the displays, as well as their neighbors, who have put up with it.
Scaleybark Court in Mt. Holly
Scaleybark Court in Mt. Holly, NC
One of the most impressive Halloween displays that you’ll see anywhere in the Charlotte is on Scaleybark Court, Mt. Holly, North Carolina. You’ll see giant, macabre creatures, dozens of skeletons, the biggest jack-o-lantern you’re likely to see, and more.
What’s really impression is that the brains behind the operation has created most of the props himself. It’s mind-boggling. What’s more is that he has a YouTube channel where he shares tutorials on how he makes the props. Check out @IsaacAlexanderDIY on YouTube or Facebook.

Commonwealth Avenue
Check back soon to see what the well-known “Halloween House” on Commonwealth Avenue in Charlotte is doing this year. One year there was a creepy carnival in the front yard this year, with a ferris wheel, a 12-foot animatronic skeleton and more. The main night used to be typically Halloween. If you’re coming from Plaza Midwood, turn left on Commonwealth and drive up a bit.
We don’t have information for 2025 yet, but please check back soon.
Skeletons for St. Jude’s
Skeletons for St. Jude’s a grassroots project where people decorate their yard with massive skeletons for Halloween, and invite guests to make a donation to St. Jude’s Children’s Research Hospital. However, as far as we know, there’s no map saying where these houses are.
