Real Santa outside house in Dyker Heights, Brooklyn

Yo, it's Christmas!

You want sparkle? You want lights? You betta go to the Dyker Heights section of Brooklyn, New York for some big time Christmas cheer!

I may be a Brooklyn native but I haven't personally ventured over to check out the Dyker Heights Christmas lights extravaganza in years.

We happened to be be in the neighborhood the other day and decided to pop by. Oh My Gawd, it's majaaaa!!!

It's still a city neighborhood, so the house are fairly close together with make the lights even more dramatic. Almost each neighbor outdoes the next in the most incredible Christmas lights and front-of-the-house extravagances. There's even a house with a live Santa sitting out front with his life-size Santa clone right by his side.
