DORRANCE TOWNSHIP, LUZERNE COUNTY (WBRE/WYOU) — It’s time for our Halloween Night House! Tuesday, 28/22 News was in Dorrance Township, Luzerne County, where a local exhibit is helping raise thousands of dollars for breast cancer research.

“We love Halloween, as you can tell, so we thought it would be fun to raise money for the Think Pink Foundation, which helps women with cancer in Luzerne County,” said Kim Davis of Luzerne Township. Dorrance.

“Everyone wants to give us money to pay our electric bill, but we’re just crazy and we don’t want that. But it was my husband who had the idea a few years ago to give this money to our foundation.

So they’re more than welcome to donate a few dollars, help someone out and enjoy the fun,” Davis explained.

When asked how long it takes to prepare for the exhibit, Davis responded by saying they start months in advance.

“Now we start in July and our goal is to be on and ready by October 1,” Davis added.

“It feels good, like we’ve accomplished something.” The best part, honestly, is when people are driving down the road, and the kids come onto the road, and the bus driver stops and lets them watch. People just give us a thumbs up or it’s just great to see. Everyone loves him,” Davis continued.

You can visit the house until November 4.
