North Highlands haunted house strikes fear into the neighborhood – Even the most scare-seasoned parents following closely behind young trick-or-treaters across the neighborhood could hardly contain their fear at the sight of Joseph Amey's freak-filled creep show. The madness that is his street-side attraction includes animatronics, props and even live actors. When ghouls brave enough to approach the walkway reach the door, full-sized candy bars are the prize. "Even some of the parents won’t come up, they say 'go on, go on get your candy.' But they won’t come up themselves," Amey said. (Luke Cleary, ABC10)
