Some enjoy being scared at Halloween. Some don’t – especially young kids or those who are special needs or need sensory friendly events.
“When our son was young he didn’t enjoy Halloween” Miriam Yost told me. “So nine years ago we started creating our own not so scary Halloween. At first it was just for the neighborhood kids, but it’s gradually grown and now we have a lot of visitors.”
“My husband does all of the artwork. He’s made over 50 wood cut-out characters. for kids to enjoy. As soon as a Halloween is over he starts planning new things to add for the next year. “
“This year, in a nod to Disney’s 100th anniversary we’ve added Disney characters. We’ll have Mickey, Belle and The Beast in costume for photo ops.”
We’re located in Huber Heights at 7221 Kirkview Drive, and we’ll be open every Saturday in October from 5 to 9. We would love for people to come and Be our Guest.”

About Bill Franz

In retirement Bill Franz bought a camera, learned how to use it, and became a volunteer photographer. He has done photo projects for the Humane Society of Greater Dayton and for almost two dozen other local organizations.

In 2013 Bill started a project of his own – photographing people at work. Since then he has photographed hundreds of workers, from butchers and bakers and candy makers to clowns and sculptors and fire eaters. The photos have appeared in solo and group art exhibitions and also in less traditional venues such as hospitals, retail stores, nature centers and breweries. They have been seen by hundreds of thousands of people. Profits from photo sales go to Dayton area nonprofits.
