‘Creating Brands That Stand’ seminar
SUBMITTED PHOTO Bensenville Independent
Happy Halloween
Excitement is building for Halloween, and the Wilkes family in Bensenville has once again channeled their excitement into an impressive spooky display outside their home. Each year, the spooky spectacle attracts tons of visitors young and old – they even have a Facebook page to update their 47,000 followers with what they can expect at the house that year. Each fall the display takes on a new theme – this year, it pays tribute to “A Nightmare on Elm Street” and “Pet Sematary.” With decorations, live characters, lights, music and plenty of photo ops, visiting the Bensenville home has become a fall tradition for many families in the surrounding suburbs.
