JACKSON, N.J. (1010 WINS) -- The Halloween decor at a New Jersey home has sparked outrage over one ghost's resemblance to a member of the Ku Klux Klan.
The "ghost" is made from a white sheet and features a pointed head. The home was also decorated with multiple no trespassing signs and Confederate flags.
"If it was just a ghost, it'd be fine. But now that you have the flag up, that's not acceptable," neighbor Doreen Koptyra told NBC New York.
The homeowner claimed he’s put up the display for years and put up his middle finger after declining to comment on camera.
“No!” he said when asked to talk. “Get the f–k out!”
The president of the Toms River-area NAACP chapter told the New York Post that they are looking into the matter and its problematic imagery.
“I think it looks like a KKK outfit rather than a Halloween costume,” Bahiyyah Abdullah told the outlet. “Having the flag above it just added to it. It’s very unfortunate that a holiday that is celebrated by so many appears to be tainted in that way.”
