A Fright for the Eyes: Swampscott’s Spookiest Homes in the Recreation Contest

Halloween is creeping up fast, and the Swampscott Recreation Department is summoning all spirits, witches, and creatures of the night to check out this year’s home decorating contest.

The town has been transformed. Spider webs stretch across porches. Pumpkins glow with eerie grins. Skeletons dance in the yards. A few octopuses have started crawling right out of the windows.
