A Haunted Halloween in Brampton, Ontario

Spooky music echos down the street as weird lights play across moldering tombstones. Spider webs dangle from overhead trees ready to catch unwitting prey. Lightning flashes across the sky just as an unholy scream rends the night. Werewolves howl as other darker terrors lurk among the shadows. Trick-or-treaters beware!

Blackstone Cemetery, now going into it's 16th year, is an award-winning Home Haunt display created by Hector Turner. He started haunting in a simple way with a few store-bought decorations and lights but within a short time started making his own props and getting more and more elaborate every year. Voted Best Yard Haunt for all of Canada by the Canadian Haunters Association in both 2013 and 2015!!

This website details the history of the haunt in photos and video, how-to tutorials and prop building projects, tombstone templates and other downloads, links to other websites of interest.

 


CANCELLED!

COVID 19 ANNOUNCEMENT: CANCELLED FOR 2020!

It is with a heavy heart that I formally announce that Halloween 2020 at Blackstone Cemetery is CANCELLED. The ongoing Covid-19 pandemic does not show signs of easing up any time soon and I would hate to feel responsible for any crowds gathering to view even a simple yard display. In addition, my long awaited/several times cancelled knee replacement surgery has been rescheduled and I will still be recovering come October. However I look forward to coming back bigger, better and spookier in 2021!

 


Halloween 2019 Photos Coming Soon!

The photos for Halloween 2019 will FINALLY soon be up for viewing. You would have thought with the whole Covid shutdown I'd have plenty of time to do that but oh well, better late than never. Halloween Night 2019 ended up being almost perfect weather wise for the first time in many years and we had a great turnout, even after the cancellation of the previous year's display. Very shortly you will be able to view the whole set of photos here... Halloween 2019
