It creeps up on you like the frightful holiday it is. Halloween has already made its presence known in stores and among the decorations that are showing up on our streets.

To help you navigate, a Delaware County father’s invention is once again available to the public, writes Victor Fiorillo for Philadelphia Magazine.

The FrightMaps app, developed by Delco dad Mike Kane, is free.

Here’s how it works.

If the decorations are yours, you can take photos and upload them to the FrightMaps app along with your location, title, and description, plus an email address. Homeowners can also note if they are giving out candy on Halloween.

Kane vets the submission and adds it to a database.

If you’re on the decorations receiving end, you can pull up a map on the app showing where the decorations are located. 

You can check-in and leave a review. Commercial Halloween attractions are also included on the map.

“You can say I’m obsessed,” Kane said, explaining why he designed the app. “My sister and I started hosting walk-through haunts in our neighborhood when we were kids, giving people walkie-talkies and stuff. I’ve amassed quite a collection of Halloween items over the years.” Find out more about FrightMaps in Philadelphia Magazine
