Meet the real-life Addams Family – who celebrate Halloween for FOUR months a year

A mum-of-five has turned her Halloween-loving brood into a real-life Addams Family. Every July to October, 36-year-old Sarah Adams – yes, that’s her real surname – decorates the family home with horror dolls, cobwebs and pumpkins for Halloween.

Sarah, from Banstead in Surrey, says she is letting loose her “inner child” by converting her home into a house of horrors for four months every year. During the family’s favourite time of year, spooky movies run non-stop on their TV, surrounded by more than £4,000 worth of decorations.

Sarah, her partner Sam Cullip, 37, a plasterer, and her five children who share her Adams surname – Alfie, 17, Jamie, 14, Kobie, 10, Bonnie, seven, and Archie, five – love dressing up as the Addams Family and look strikingly similar to the macabre TV clan.
