The Howson family have been the talk of Motherwell during Halloween season ever since they held a spooky party for one of their grandson's birthdays back in 2006
A Lanarkshire family attract hundreds of people to their stunning Halloween-themed home - for the 17th year running. William Howson, 68, and wife Roslyn, 61, began the tradition in 2006 after throwing a spooky party for one of their grandson's birthdays.
The couple now have 17 grandchildren - and they all get involved in the fun too. "It started with our grandson's fourth birthday on 1 November 2006, when we had a wee display and Halloween party," said William.

"We don't charge people to come in, it's just all about the fun. We have to start setting up in September, there are hundreds of decorations to get out, so it takes us about seven weeks. People will queue for hours to get in – and it's so funny seeing people's reactions to it, especially the adults who are scared."We are the Halloween house and people will stop by and ask if we are doing it again this year.
Inside lie bloody handprints, eerie animatronics and of course, the Howson family, who are ready to scare willing visitors. This year, William has dressed as Pennywise the clown, the killer antagonist of Stephen King's IT.
