And, of course, Halloween wouldn’t be the same without taking a drive past 3213 15^th Avenue East in Prince Albert where you’ll find Dennis Adam’s entire front yard taken over with an annual display of ghoulish figures, animatronic witches and inflatable gargoyles all with frightening sound effects. Adams has put up the display almost every year for the last two decades.
