Happy Haunting
If you've spent hours toiling away at your sewing machine, or, like me, an outlandish amount of money on the Halloween costumes your little spooks just had to have, you might be wondering how you can get the most bang for your effort or buck. We have the answer! Instead of just that one-hour of trick-or-treating, let your little witches and wizards show off their costumes all weekend long at these cool Halloween events. Check out some spooky theater. Party at a Monster Mash block party. Or march in a costume parade. Have a safe and fun Halloween! -Michelle Xiarhos Curran, Calendar Editor
