It’s almost Halloween, and you know what that means — your neighbors will be getting their spooky on, but sometimes, people go above and beyond. Not only do they make sure they’ve got skeleton decor inside, but they make the exterior of the house itself look terrifying. Christine McConnell is one of these people.

If that name rings a bell, it’s because McConnell has her own baking show on Netflix. Called The Curious Creations of Christine McConnell, she manages to combine everything we love about Halloween, baking, and puppets in one program. It’s good to know that her love of the holiday isn’t just for the camera. In fact, she actually transformed her parent’s house into a spectacular haunted house that’s become the talk of the neighborhood.

For years, the house itself resembled a monster with multiple eyes. But McConnell decided that it was time for a bit of an upgrade. This year, the house looks more like a demon — and it even has fangs.

To truly understand how much work she puts into the haunted house, you should see the way the house originally looked during the first Halloween transformation. It’s almost like something out of a scary children’s movie — but it’s still a complete work of art.

Why mess with perfection, you may ask? Good question. But the redesign for 2018 will make you wonder what other designs McConnell has in mind.

“This took me over a month and is probably my most ambitious project ever,” she wrote on Instagram.

It might be a little late this year, but perhaps it might inspire you to transform your entire home into a real haunted house for next Halloween. Without a doubt, you’ll be the talk of the neighborhood.
