Nightmare on Maple Ct. is a yard display in suburban Bridgeview, IL. Located in a small subdivision at 6825 Maple ct. (use www.mapquest.com for driving directions.) Each halloween for the past 10 years the Doyle family has decorated their yard with nightmarish creatures. Displayed from Oct. 15- Oct 31 permitting no rain. If you happen to be in the area of the famous haunted Resurrection Cemetery stop by for some scares. Be sure to park and take a walk through the yard and sign the guest book for the funeral of David Glein located in the back yard. And you just might get to meet "Crazy Old Man" Doyle.
This is not a bunch of store bought halloween props and lights. Most everything in the yard has been made by the family. There are animated ghouls, gory scenes, and lifesized movie monsters.
Crazy Old Man Doyle has been decorating his house since he was a child. Each year he builds new props and monsters to add to the yard. What started as his hobby has turned into a family obsession over the last 22 years. Everyone gets in to the act, setting up, taking down, greeting visitors. We have people come from all over to see the yard and get a lot of good feedback.
