We’ve seen some pretty cool holiday home light displaysOpens in a new tab over the years, especially around Halloween time. Usually to the tune of “This is Halloween” from The Nightmare Before Christmas” or the good old “Monster Mash.” But for this dazzling light show, brought to us via the folks at Laughing SquidOpens in a new tab, we’ve gone full metal.
Tom BetGeorge of Magical Light ShowsOpens in a new tab has decked out his house in Tracy, California with thousands of interactive lights for one killer show. Only this year, his singing jack-o’-lantern is a headbanger, rockin’ out to the Metallica a classic “Enter SandmanOpens in a new tab.” You can watch the full video of BetGeorge’s latest Halloween light show down below.
Similar to BetGeorge’s previous light shows, this is as a free event for the local community. It’s only two hours a night on weekends, as a way to minimize excess traffic in the neighborhood. As with all his light shows, the money he raises goes to McHenry HouseOpens in a new tab, a local shelter for families.
BetGeorge’s other musical Halloween light show for 2020 features “The Monster” by Rihanna and Eminem. Which we must say, is an inspired choice. Over the past several years, Magical Light Shows have done some amazing work during spooky season. They’ve created wild displays featuring songs like Ray Parker Jr.’s GhostbustersOpens in a new tab—complete with green slime effect—and the Stranger Things title themeOpens in a new tab. There was also a great tribute to the best of Disney’s villains. And you can’t do a Halloween music light show without touching upon Michael Jackson’s “ThrillerOpens in a new tab” at least once.
