On Halloween, Tybee Island is one sweet trip
TYBEE ISLAND, Ga. — Yards have been transformed into spooky spectacles with gravestones, fog machines and pirate skeletons. The fire department has delivered $1,100 worth of candy to homeowners so they don’t run out. And Susan Hill is paying a friend $60 to handle the costumed hordes at her door. Now, the Halloween fanatics on Lewis Avenue await the onslaught of trick-or-treaters from as far as Savannah, 18 miles away — sometimes even from neighboring South Carolina.
