Dyker Heights turns into ‘Dyker Frights’ for Halloween
DYKER HEIGHTS — Dyker Heights is world-famous for its Christmas lights display but the neighborhood’s homeowners also go all-out for Halloween, decorating their front lawns with eye-popping scenes of zombies playing on swings, dead people crawling out of graves and giant spiders peering into windows.
A stroll through the streets of Dyker Heights, as well as its neighboring community of Bay Ridge, reveals dozens of creatively decorated houses that are giving visitors chills and laughs at the same time.
“Dyker Heights residents are very proud of their homes. They like to decorate and entertain. The decorations are different and inventive,” Dyker Heights Civic Association President Fran Vella-Marrone told the Home Reporter.
