Wisconson Resident, Friends to Perform 'Thriller' at Yard Haunt

This just in...

Halloween yard haunts seem to be going full-throttle this year, and I've heard of everything from a recreation of a few props from the Transformers films on someone's lawn, to another yard haunter's re-enactment of the crash-landing of the U.S. Airways plane on the Hudson River, with the homeowner dressed up as Captain "Skully." I'm not promoting or condoning either of these yard haunts, just relaying what has been reported elsewhere.

But there's a yard haunt set for Saturday night in Racine, Wisconsin, that I'd love to see. According to The Journal Times, Racine resident Steve Hooper and 11 of his friends and family members will be performing Michael Jackson's "Thriller" dance every 20 minutes during Hooper's scheduled yard haunt and trick-or-treating.

Hooper and his dance troop have been rehearsing and will be in full costume. "This is all in pure fun, and we really get nothing more from it than a few screams and childhood thrills," Hooper told The Journal Times. "We would love to see as many people show up as possible," he added.
