Spooky Szn is in full swing. If you're looking for some family-friendly fun (and maybe some scares), there are some really cool houses in Hamilton Township (Mercer County) that you need to visit pronto. Let's just say, these homeowners knew the assignment.

For many, visiting these "Halloween Houses" has become a tradition. Year after year, families from all over flock to Hamilton to check out their favorite displays and see what may be new.

Homeowners prepare for months for the Halloween season

Preparing these houses for Spooky Szn is no small feat. It some cases, it takes these Halloween-obsessed residents months to make their homes just right for the community to see, so if you see them while visiting, thank them.

Farina Family Frightmare

The Farina Family Frightmare is such a cool display on Moro Drive. The Farina family convinced their neighbors to join the Halloween fun and thrill the community. The frightmare is spread out over 4 families front lawns...7, 9, 11, and 15 Moro Drive.

Check out the musical light shows, creepy scenery, and chilling effects. If you've been before, it's worth the trip back to check out the new additions. If you're looking for someplace cool to trick-or-treat this year, head to Moro Drive...the whole street gets involved. It's quite an experience.

All of the Hamilton Halloween Houses are close to each other, so its definitely possible to see all in one night. I bet you'll want to visit them more than once.

Happy Halloween.
