13-year-old creates 'Shelby Home Haunt' display on Indianapolis' south side featuring more than 200 spooky animatronics

The creator of the display is a 13-year-old boy on a mission to give back to his community.

INDIANAPOLIS — It's not your typical Halloween lawn display.

From creepy clowns to towering werewolves, more than 200 spooky animatronics are lighting up a south Indianapolis neighborhood.

The creator is a 13-year-old boy on a mission to give back to his community.

The free attraction, located in the 5600 block of Shelby Street, started when Elijah Goar was gifted a small dancing animatronic. Years later, the Shelby Home Haunt is a passion project that has taken over his entire property.

"You know, a lot of people can't afford going to the actual haunted houses locally and I think a lot of people enjoy being able to walk through something for free," Goar said.

"Shelby Home Haunt" is open Halloween night from 6-11 p.m.
