‘It’s making children cry’: Police tell man to tone down annual charity Halloween display in honour of his grandmother
A Halloween fan who put up a gruesome display of ‘disembowelled corpses’ outside his home has been asked by police to tone it down.
James Creighton, 25, was told that his scene was making children cry with its macabre reconstruction of a scene from The Texas Chainshaw Massacre.
He has put the display up outside his house in Stevenage to raise funds for charity every year since his grandmother died in 2009.
But one parent complained to Hertfordshire Constabulary, concerned that the collection of ‘bloody corpses and gory skeletons’ was scaring young children.
But Mr Creighton said: ‘I can’t believe it to be honest. I can’t see what I’ve done wrong.’
