I love October!! There’s always a reason to get cozy and stay in, or get a little silly and dress up as someone (or something) else for a night. With such a fun energy in the air, this month really lets us lean into joy. For me, Halloween is the true kickoff to the holiday season! It’s the time of year when houses really start to feel like home. Elaborate décor and colorful lights make their debut, turning neighborhoods into something magical. Our spaces become places for gathering, celebrating, and creating joy and connection.

Remember when that neighborhood turned into Barbieland? That’s the holiday spirit I’m talking about! If you want to see this year’s best Halloween displays, I’ve got you covered. 

There are a few Salt Lake classics- like the pumpkin house on 800 E 300 S, or the pirate house at 2187 S 1800 E. But you know that Daybreak goes the hardest when it comes to Halloween transformations. From the F.R.I.E.N.D.S house to the Beetlejuice house, CLICK HERE for a map of the 2025 Daybreak Haunts tour.
