Rankin Inlet’s Pelagie Sharp says her orange and black decorations help beat the COVID-19 blues. She used to set up a haunted house in her home for kids to visit on Halloween night, but adapted to last year’s health restrictions by ordering blow-up characters to put in her yard to give trick-or-treaters a smile. With five kids under 12 years old at home, Sharp said the inside of her house is completely decorated as well. (Photo by Pelagie Sharp)
