Commented Thom Beers, CEO, FremantleMedia North America, "We scoured the country last year showcasing some of the most incredible Christmas displays, and taking this amazingly creative competition to Halloween has been equally breathtaking. We're delighted to have Sabrina and Michael back as our judges and look forward to celebrating another holiday on ABC."
