LORAIN, Ohio ? A Lorain Family known for decorating their home every Halloween was recently robbed?of some of their favorite spooky Halloween decorations.
When driving down Washington Avenue in Lorain you can always spot the Gillispie home every October. It?s the house with tombstones, goblins, skeletons and skulls all over their front yard however this past Sunday more than $400 of their favorite scary Halloween decorations were taken.
?Quite a few things were missing so, I?called my daughter and I said someone robbed us,? says Robert Gillispie of Lorain.
The family was so upset about the robbery they made a?sign that read ?To the Grinch that stole Halloween kiss my?.??and put it in their front yard for everyone to see. They later took it down so not to offend anyone. The family also?filed a police report.
Robert Gillispie says ever since he and his wife became ill nine years ago, they?ve learned to appreciate every holiday. That?s why they go all out and decorate their home every Christmas and Halloween.
?Since we got through the cancer and with the economy so bad, we don?t have the extra money to take super trips so this is our vacation. We just enjoy having family over, friends and giving them a thrill factor,? says Robert Gillispie.

This year?the?Gillispies have decorated?each room?with?a scary Halloween theme. They turned their kitchen into a gruesome?butcher shop, their living room is set up like a creepy Wizard of Oz complete with the Wicked Witch of the West and they turned their family room into a devil?s den.
Loryane Tyree lives right next door to the Gillispies. She says it?s a shame someone would steal their Halloween decorations.
?You can?t have anything anywhere you live and this is a nice neighborhood how people can do these things?I don?t know.?
The family has replaced some of the stolen decorations and they say the robbery will not ruin one of their favorite holidays.
