Halloween Decorations
Dyker Heights beats Bay Ridge in decorations this year (and last too).
- Dyker Frights is located at 1123 – 79th Street. You don’t go into their house, but they have a scary scene set up. Dyker Frights doesn’t cost anything, although they do sell items to raise money for a charity. It’s open everyday and it’s great to drive by, but on Halloween or the weekend before Halloween, it’s worth a stop to walk around because the owners are a bit more interactive with the audience. It’s best seen at night because they have Halloween lights and some of their items glow. There is a small house in front of the staircase that you can stop by and look into. See here:

- Corner of 97th Street and Marine Avenue
