Berkeley Home Brings Musical Light Show To Halloween

BERKELEY, NJ — Ryan Koenig is known for his Christmas light show, dazzling neighbors as the lights move to music. But with activities limited during the coronavirus pandemic, the Bayville man will also put on a performance for the spooky season.

Koenig will host a Halloween light show from 6-11 p.m. Friday at 11 N Island Rd. People can watch and tune into 87.9 FM from their vehicles as pixel-animated lights dance to the seasonal jams.

"I wasn’t even going to do the Halloween show. I was just going to do it for Christmas," Koenig told Patch. "But with everything the way it is today, I just decided to throw it up last-minute so people and their kids can get out of their houses."

Koenig began putting together Christmas light shows three or four years ago. It started with a "Mr. Christmas" from Home Depot, which comes with lights set to move to certain songs.

He made the setup more elaborate over the years. Check out some of his supplies:

Koenig says he put together Friday's show at the "last minute," but he programmed the lights to a couple Halloween songs.
