Someone’s pilfered our Halloween spirits this year: Thieves made off with all of the decorations one couple used to create the popular “Halloween Alley” in Magnolia. MyNorthwest reports the couple recently discovered the truck they use to store the decorations was broken into. Carol Ard and her husband, Tom Canning, said many of the decorations they’ve collected over the years are one of a kind and irreplaceable. The family is understandably upset, but they’ll still be giving away full-sized candy bars, trying to make the best out of this stolen Halloween.
