Burns Street in Forest Hills, Queens is lined with homes that take decorating for Halloween as seriously as I take getting ready for my mother-in-law to visit for the weekend. We forget nothing.

Home to some of the best Halloween decorations in New York City, locals have made this one of the most sought-after trick-or-treating destinations in the Big Apple.

So many dressed-up kids visit on Halloween that police officers are often forced to close down the street to cars in order to squeeze in all the eager trick-or-treaters. To people unaware of the date it can feel like stumbling into Comic-Con.
