Los Angeles Rams defensive end Myles Garrett may be widely celebrated for his fierce dominance on the football field, but off the gridiron, the star athlete harbors an entirely different kind of passion: transforming his luxury residences into jaw-dropping, Hollywood-grade haunted houses for the Halloween season. <\/p>\n
The 30-year-old NFL powerhouse recently made headlines not just for his athletic prowess, but for his high-end real estate maneuvers. Following his trade from the Cleveland Browns, Garrett quickly offloaded his previous home in Ohio for $2.15 million, completing the sale within days of listing it. He subsequently secured a lavish $23 million estate in the exclusive Los Angeles enclave of Hidden Hills\u2014an upscale neighborhood that counts fellow Rams teammate Matthew Stafford among its elite residents.<\/p>\n
The massive California property provides an expansive canvas for Garrett\u2019s famously elaborate spooky-season traditions. Featuring a tiered backyard complete with a swimming pool, a dedicated sport court, and a separate guesthouse, the estate offers endless opportunities for the athlete to push the boundaries of holiday decorating. <\/p>\n
Garrett\u2019s dedication to Halloween is no casual hobby; it is a meticulously planned, cinema-quality production that has captivated fans on Instagram since 2021. Over the past five years, the tradition has evolved into an annual spectacle featuring his signature "QB Graveyard"\u2014a creative, tongue-in-cheek nod to the professional quarterbacks he has successfully sacked throughout his illustrious career. <\/p>\n
For his 2025 concept, Garrett elevated the production value even further, partnering with special effects artist Mike Castro and MadnessFX to craft a terrifying homage to A Nightmare on Elm Street<\/em>. In a viral video shared on social media, Garrett can be seen fully suited up as the iconic horror villain Freddy Krueger, actively "hunting quarterbacks" while tossing around dummies dressed in the jerseys of his gridiron opponents. <\/p>\n Garrett\u2019s affinity for the holiday runs deep, tracing back to his childhood growing up in Arlington, Texas, where his neighborhood famously embraced the culture of trick-or-treating and extravagant haunted houses. Now, as one of the highest-paid athletes identified by Forbes<\/em>, Garrett possesses the financial resources to bring his childhood fantasies to life on a blockbuster scale. <\/p>\n Indeed, his Halloween budget far exceeds what an average enthusiast might spend at a seasonal storefront. In 2024, to anchor a dystopian, Terminator<\/em>-themed exhibit, Garrett went so far as to purchase a brand-new Tesla Cybertruck just for the front-yard display. Reflecting on the decision in an interview, he noted that the setup aimed to capture a futuristic, Armageddon-like vibe that matched the sleek, angular look of the vehicle. When asked if the pricey truck\u2014which starts at $74,000\u2014was already part of his personal fleet, Garrett admitted that it was purchased purely for the bit, emphasizing his total commitment to the aesthetic.<\/p>\n Previous iterations of his elaborate home transformations have included an October 2023 display channeling the eerie energy of Jeepers Creepers<\/em>, which he has cited as a childhood favorite film. He has also paid homage to Stranger Things<\/em> in 2022 and embraced a classic grim reaper motif in 2021. <\/p>\n While plans for his newly acquired Hidden Hills estate remain under wraps, Garrett has already given fans plenty to look forward to this season. The athlete has partnered with Lowe\u2019s to launch an immersive holiday experience titled "Myles Garrett\u2019s Field of Fright" at the Calabasas-based Night of the Jack event. A portion of the proceeds from the experience, which Garrett attended in late October, directly benefits STEM education through the L.A. Rams Foundation. Through his collaboration with the home improvement retailer, Garrett also curated a selection of his favorite decorations\u2014including an animatronic grim reaper, an oversized lawn mummy, and a variety of faux tombstones\u2014that align with his distinct holiday style.<\/p>\n Garrett\u2019s enthusiasm for the spooky season is matched by his personal life. The NFL star has been dating three-time Olympic medalist Chloe Kim since May 2025. The champion snowboarder is set to test her own psychological grit as a member of the cast of The Traitors<\/em>, an intense reality competition series filmed inside a magnificent yet spine-chilling Scottish castle. Given her relationship with Garrett and her exposure to his elaborate haunted productions, Kim should feel right at home among the castle’s dramatic jump-scares and macabre atmosphere.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Los Angeles Rams defensive end Myles Garrett may be widely celebrated for his fierce dominance on the football field, but off the gridiron, the star athlete harbors an entirely different kind of passion: transforming his luxury residences into jaw-dropping, Hollywood-grade haunted houses for the Halloween season.
