For the past seven years, Adela and Darrell Jacobsen’s home on Autumn Hills Drive in Wylie has transformed into one of the city’s most eye-catching Halloween attractions.

The couple’s elaborate displays have even caught the attention of Channel 5 News and hundreds of trick-or-treaters who make their way to 803 Autumn Hills Drive each October. Last year, their efforts raised $504 for the SPCA of Texas. This year, donations will benefit the Wylie Animal Shelter.
