For the first time in over a decade, Oakville residents missed out last year on a popular local Halloween house.
This year, the Sixth Line haunted house is back, and the host says it feels great to return.

Jason Edwards is a local handyman who lives at the corner of Sixth Line and Munn’s Avenue. Since becoming an entrepreneur last year and managing the hustle of running his own business, he is happy to announce that he can once again treat the community during his favourite time of the year.
Located at 2256 Munn's Avenue, this is one of the best Halloween-decorated homes in Halton, drawing thousands of visitors each year.
Setting up the display takes Edwards 80 to 100 hours of work, requiring him to take two weeks off to get it ready in time.
The setup process includes several trips to Peterborough, where he stores most of his props.
Says Edwards, "You always think it’s a lot of work, a lot of money, time, and effort, but it’s always worth it in the long run when you see families and kids come by to enjoy it."
The display will be open to the public until Halloween night starting at 6 p.m.
A donation box is set up in front of the display, with proceeds going to the Oak Park Neighbourhood Centre.
