It will be a long road to recovery for a small family business in Olympia after thieves stole a rental truck containing all their custom cut-outs and printed merchandise while they were traveling in between festivals.

Elizabeth "Liz" Anderson and husband, Wes Anderson, owners of Cutout Creation PNW, say the theft happened while they were staying at a hotel in Federal Way. The family loves Halloween and every year, the family uses their crafting skills to bring imagination to life in their outdoor display. Elizabeth, who goes by "Liz" also uses her spooky season creativity in her business."It’s always the biggest beginning of the shopping season," said Liz.

"Feeling of warmth and family and comrade," said Liz. Ironically, the truck was dropped off by thieves at a U-Haul rental place in Auburn, with a tool left on the floor of the truck that may have been used in the theft. Liz keeps it on a shelf now next to a lump of coal. Because fall has been so frightening for the family's finances, loved ones started a GoFundMe page to help them get back on their feet.
