Gory Dallas Halloween Display that Got Police Calls Last Year Returns

Oct. 20, 2021
“All the cops that came out last year were an absolute gas," said the man behind the gruesome Halloween house decorations, which include a (fake) blood-spewing wood chipper this year.

It’s no trick — horror lovers are in for another treat thanks to the gory Halloween decorations haunting a Dallas house.

Homeowner Steven Novak has once again transformed the front of his North Texas residence into a freaky fantasy land, a year after his over-the-top decorations garnered mixed reviews and lots of attention, according to the Dallas Observer.

Novak’s 2021 vision features a dummy with a chainsaw stabbed through it, a wood chipper that spews red liquid, and a scene meant to look like a safe landed on a man and made his head explode.

“It’s been a tremendous amount of work and dough, but it’s worth it because people love it so much,” Novak told the Dallas Observer. “People get as tickled looking at my massacre as they do looking at puppies!”

Novak brought back some of the same decorations from 2020, including the bloody safe on his front walkway, while mixing in new ones this year.

His house received several visits from police last year after the scene was reported to authorities.

“All the cops that came out last year were an absolute gas,” Novak told the Dallas Observer. “I welcome them to come out and take more selfies.”
