It's that spooky night when ghosts and ghouls roam the earth, and children dash from house to house in search of a few tricks and lots of treats. Halloween is not just a holiday, but a pillar of American culture which families eagerly anticipate every fall. Snow Village Halloween brings a full array of frighteningly fun decorations to your home. They still get mail at the local Village Ghost Office. Housed in a building that was once a handsome architectural design, it now is reduced to cracked windows, crumbling columns and ghost webs of all kinds. About Department 56: For 40 years, Department 56 has been creating holiday traditions passed down from generation to generation. The excitement of the holiday season comes home with intricately detailed villages from settings that inspire the imagination. Stroll through a small American town, enjoy a walk with Charles Dickens, or visit Santa in the North Pole. Our ornaments and figurines create even more opportunities to spread good wishes during the happiest time of the year.
