The page and list was created by Dubbo’s Tara Rymer two years ago and she said it has grown in popularity.
“South is popular, it’s definitely the biggest one with 20 houses,” she said.
“South Lakes is also popular and the owner at 6 Plover Close in Avian Estate always puts on a a huge display.”
Ms Rymer is a big fan of Halloween and wished more people did it.
“My kids love it. Halloween is on at our house every day,” she laughed.
“They love the whole ‘being scared for fun’”.
Living in South Dubbo, Mr Rymer said she’ll be taking her children trick or treating in the area.
“When I go trick or treating I don’t dress up. But the kids have some amazing costumes,” she said.
“You don’t have to go scary, you can dress up like a superhero or princess. It’s up to you.”
