Avast! Dead Men Tell No Tales in Livermore
Livermore Halloween house gets bigger and better as it celebrates 15 years of fun during All Hallows' Eve.

Aaarrhhhhh! Avast Ye, one neighborhood in Livermore has been thoroughly promoting Halloween excitement for 15 years. 2014 is the 15th Anniversary of the Staton Halloween Extravaganza so the family joined forces with long-time neighbors, Kevin and Lisa Gemberling, to go bigger than ever now extending the lengths of two houses. We all know that dead men tell no tales as a deserted sunken ship floats nearby in a glowing green moat while the Wicked Wench skeleton pirate ship sails nearby. The Wicked Wench sports a speaking Medusa at the masthead and all the while the ship’s captain shoots cannons at the fortress next door. Trick or treaters will “walk the plank” between the cannonball battle of the fortress soldiers and the skeleton pirates. Watch out at you might get wet! The journey then takes the little scallywags around the burning fortress to observe skeleton pirates hanging in their jail cages and poor Carlos getting dunked in the well for information he will not provide.
Come on over to walk the plank on Winding Stream Drive … don’t be a chicken! Candy and camaraderie awaits those who brave this Halloween eve. Many thank to Jeremy Travis, Kevin and Lisa Gemberling, Bruce Andersen, Dave and Logan Warner and too many other contributors to mention. A special thanks to the neighborhood who supports these efforts and Borg Fencing for donating scrap lumber for this year’s display.
