A&J's Halloween House tradition is back once again. This year's theme – clowns.
The display is filled with intricate details from a hand-painted clown archway, to the personalized signs on the fence.

To fully immerse people in the display, the smoke from the A&J's Tricks and Treats Truck actually smell like cotton candy.
As in years past, the display doubles as a fundraiser for Pathfinders Milwaukee – a non-profit organization that helps runaway and abused children.

"We do this for the community, because the community loves it, absolutely loves it. There are some kids that can remember it from 3 years old and now they’ve graduated high school," said Jamie Beauchamp, homeowner.
