Henry's Christmas Yard in northwest Illinois attracts thousands of visitors each year. It has been going on for about a decade and gets bigger and better each season.
This year, there will be 145 festive pieces to this holiday extravaganza. The most prominent feature is the 33-foot-tall Santa Claus. He's so big that he stands taller than the house.
It is estimated to cost $12 each day to run this display. The owner, Scott Hildebrand, doesn't mind though, due to the joy it brings to him and others.
In true Christmas spirit, this amazing yard, which is named for the owner's dog, helps spread good will as well as cheer. A box is set up outside the home to collect canned goods, which are donated to a nearby church.
