There's a monster house in Vancouver and it's awesome

There’s a house in Vancouver that’s monstrous, but not in the way you might think.

Some clever Vancouverites decked out their house for Halloween in the perfect likeness of a giant, creepy monster.

The heritage-style home is at Yukon and West 11th Avenue, and it has been delighting Instagrammers across the city.

The house belongs to Mik Lernout, who admits in his own Instagram post that he might have gone “a little overboard.”

We probably went a bit overboard this year.

Well, Mik, if you hadn’t gone overboard, we never would have experienced the magic of the Monster House. God speed, good sir.

Here’s a little sneak peak of the building of the Monster House from his sister, Jo:

And if that isn’t enough, there’s even a smoke machine under the “nose.”

These folks definitely win Halloween this year.
