As the nights get darker and the Halloween season creeps ever nearer, our team in Aberdeen are turning to residents at our Grandhome development to help the neighbourhood really get into the ‘spirit’ of things.

Throughout the month of October, home-owners at the Bridge of Don development who are celebrating Halloween are being asked to enchant the exteriors of their Cala homes with a touch of spooky magic to create frighteningly fun and hilariously haunted displays and bring a smile – or a scare - to their neighbours.

The owners of the most spine-tinglingly impressive display will receive a £100 Amazon gift voucher with our Grandhome sales team selecting the winner on Saturday 30th October. The only trick to this spellbinding treat is that those taking part consider the environment when purchasing or creating their decorations by using recyclable materials and products where possible.

If you live in a Cala home at Grandhome and are able to take part, we would love to see photos of your decorations! Please tag our social media accounts, @CalaHomes, and use #Calaween when sharing your photos on Facebook, Instagram or Twitter.

We can’t wait to see what ghoulish creations Grandhome residents come up with!
