A young couple in a sporty coupe slow down to near idling as they approach James Caron’s house in Lisbon. Not having seen enough, they go around the block for one more look.

The couple has been beckoned to Crest Avenue by the siren’s call of LAMO’s “Party Rock Anthem” blasting over their speakers on 107.1 FM as they watch Caron’s Christmas lights blink, twirl and pulsate to the beat of the music.

New this year, a Grinch sings along to the popular dance music.

The Christmas season has arrived.

It’s a Caron family tradition to go over the top in outdoor decorating for the holiday.

In October, James Caron is at the Lewiston house of his brother, Mike, playing a ghoul and scaring trick-or-treaters.

When December rolls around, Caron is out in the cold decorating the exterior of his home with 25,000 LED lights.

“It takes about 40 hours to put everything out,” Caron said. “It then takes another six to eight hours to computer program a two-minute song.”

The lights are synchronized to music such as “Gangman Style” and a popular parody “Moves Like Santa.”

His neighbors don’t seem to be bothered by a few more cars on their street in the weeks leading up to Christmas.

“They like it and have even started setting up their own lights,” Caron said as he pointed out a handful of homes surrounding him with darkened lights hanging from their eaves.

In the spirit of Christmas, Caron started collecting nonperishable food items and travel-sized toiletries for the Ronald McDonald House three years ago after his wife stayed there to tend to their premature daughter.

That daughter now dances around the house giggling, “Daddy’s lights! Daddy’s lights!”

Also this year, he vowed to hand out 1,300 candy canes in the week leading up to Christmas in Ralphie’s bunny suit from “A Christmas Story” if his Facebook page received more than 250 likes.

It’s currently up to more than 300.

“I’ll be out there every night until I run out,” he said.

Caron runs his light show at 13 Crest Ave. from 4:30 to 9:30 p.m. Sunday through Thursday, and 4:30 to 10 p.m. Friday and Saturday.

A working train, blow-up snowmen and reindeer, nativity scenes, snow globes, Christmas trees, hundreds of santas and thousands upon thousands of lights decorate private winter wonderlands this holiday season. We asked you, our readers, to share your favorites. Here they are:
