A Gold Coast family have spent 6 months transforming their Pacific Pines home into an iconic horror house inspired by Stephen King's 'IT'.

The home will display dark, decrepit weatherboarding, a large spider outside and a multitude of other spooky decorations.

The family has stated that they noticed a considerably higher number of trick or treaters out in the street last year, after they had transformed their home with cobwebs and a smoke machine. 

They are hoping that their new project will attract even more families and children on Halloween night.
