It's Halloween season again and you know what that means. Halloween is a big deal in L.A. We've got people who know show biz and know special effects. That adds up to a lot of tricked out houses for the holiday.

If you trick out your house for Halloween, register as a user of valleynews.com and post your pictures. Show us your best decorations and effects.

After reviewing your submissions, the staff here at valleynews.com will pick our favorite house to represent your community. We're looking for spooky, creative and fun!

We'll send a photographer to the winner's home to get more great shots of the Valley's unique Halloween display. The best house will be featured on the cover of valleynews.com's Oct. 26 edition.

So show us what you've got! Go to valleynews.com, register as a user and post a story explaining why your Halloween house is the best in the neighborhood. Post lots of photos to prove your point. If we think you have the best display, you'll be getting a call from us. And stay tuned for the Oct. 26 edition to see who gets picked.

Also, if your family has a special Halloween tradition, share a story about it. Even if you don't decorate, post pictures of how you celebrate Halloween. Check out our first submission, from the Scott family in Toluca Lake.
