What is Dexter's Halloween?

Every October we turn our house into a horror walk-through. Scaffolding goes up around our property and next door's, and we transform it into a haunted route full of animatronics, scares and spooky surprises.

People come from all over to brave the walk-through, and it's all in aid of Little Havens Children's Hospice — a children's hospice that provides care and support for babies, children and young people with life-limiting conditions, and their families.
