While you’re in the neighborhood, be sure to hit some of the brownstone-lined streets, where residents are known for their out-of-this-world decorations. Event details.
Oct. 31: This is the big one. Starting at 7 p.m., this famous parade is loud, crowded, and rowdy—it’s a mainstay of the holiday so we feel like we have to mention it, but it’s not the most kid-friendly spot. Save this one for the older children, or celebrate earlier with the Washington Square Park kids’ parade. Event details.
Jackson Heights Halloween Parade
Oct. 31: This is the other big one. This Queens neighborhood’s wildly popular Halloween Parade is the second-largest Halloween kids parade in NYC. As if marching in that wasn’t enough reward in itself, at the end of the procession, all kids get goodie bags. After the parade, kids can hit the apartment buildings in the area to score big.

The Best Trick-or-Treating Neighborhoods in Manhattan
Governors Island usually hosts a Halloween event during the two weekends leading up to the holiday.

Kids parade around Nolan Park, stopping by every participating house, where the people are friendly and dressed up, and the candy is plentiful.
Meatpacking District
The Meatpacking District is a top destination for trick-or-treaters this year, thanks to the neighborhood’s “Treats in the Streets” event. From 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. on October 21, participating vendors will be handing out candy and treats to costumed revelers. The block party will feature live music, a doggie costume contest, and a bunch of treats and activities for kids. Walk the High Line for a birds-eye view of the festivities and for more opportunities to get treats from volunteers. Download a map on the website and head out for a big haul!
Chelsea
Kick off trick-or-treating in Clement Clarke Moore Park—known by locals as “Seal Park”—on 10th Avenue at 22nd Street, then walk up and down the decorated brownstone blocks around the General Theological Seminary. The west side neighborhood’s most popular streets for gathering the goods are 21st and 22nd Streets between Ninth and Tenth Avenues; for less of a crowd, head to the houses between Eighth and Ninth Avenues. Stop by Chelsea Market for a break from the cold and some more treats, as the space usually hosts trick-or-treating events on Halloween.
The East Midtown Partnership is bringing trick-or-treating back to the streets of Midtown, and promises the event will be bigger and better than ever. Visit on Halloween from 3-7 for a packed schedule of events and candy. Families can pick up a trick-or-treating bag at Sunrise (139 East 56th Street at Lexington Avenue)—where you can also participate in free pumpkin painting—or the plaza outside 919 3rd Avenue (at East 56th Street). Check out the spooky photo booth at the plaza, then make your way around the neighborhood’s businesses. You can view a map of participating locations on the website.
Hamilton Heights
Uptown in Hamilton Heights, head to 141st to 145th Street between Broadway and Amsterdam, where residents deck out their townhouses in a new theme each year, making for an especially festive treat gathering.
Harlem
In Harlem, you can’t go wrong with 121st Street, starting at Marcus Garvey Park and hitting the brownstones all the way to Frederick Douglass Boulevard. Another great spot is Strivers Row, at 138th and 139th Street and Adam Clayton Powell Jr. Boulevard as well as a bit further north, at Hamilton Terrace between 141st and 144th Streets, where houses are decked out each year with impressive Halloween displays.
Tribeca
Stores around Washington Market Park will be decorated in style and handing out candy on Halloween, as will storefronts and houses along Duane, Reade, and Church Streets.
Upper West Side
Walk up Columbus Ave between 68th and 77th Streets for some great trick or treating (the streets might also be closed to traffic that day, but check ahead to be sure!), or switch over to Amsterdam Street around 111th Street.
Upper East Side
The best spots for trick or treating in the Upper East Side seem to be 78th and 82nd Streets, but make sure to leave time to take in the sights: The neighborhood is known for spooky and over-the-top Halloween decorations. Check out hot spots on East 78th, between Park and Lexington Avenue as well as East 67th, 72nd, and 74th between Fifth Ave and Madison. Stop by for some impressive skeletons, painted pumpkins, smoke-breathing dragons, and more spooky fun.
Queens: The Best Trick-or-Treating Neighborhoods in Queens
Forest Hills Gardens will make you doubt you’re in NYC. The leafy and historic enclave is a trick-or-treater’s paradise, with tree-lined streets and stately single-family houses. There’s always activity on the busy thoroughfare of Continental and 71st Avenues, and if you prefer to visit businesses and storefronts over houses, Metropolitan Avenue in Forest Hills proper has a lot to offer for costumed kids.
Middle Village
For an authentic, suburban, small-town vibe, head to Middle Village. Highly residential, with mostly single-family homes, this neighborhood contains lots of houses spooked up for the holidays (think big inflatables) and pedestrian-friendly streets for tiny trick-or-treaters. Juniper Valley Park is a beloved neighborhood park that often hosts Halloween goodies for the kids, which in the past have included tables full of candy and decked-out car trunks that would compete with any house decor display.
Sunnyside Gardens
For a similar feel to Middle Village that’s a little easier to get to by subway (it’s a short walk from the 46th St./Bliss St. stop on the 7 line) try Sunnyside Gardens. One of New York’s first planned communities, this cohesive landmarked area’s streets of charming houses and oversized trees make for manageable and picturesque candy collecting.
The Best Trick-or-Treating Neighborhoods and Events in Brooklyn
Bedford Stuyvesant
This community is so organized it has a map of Halloween hot spots and blocks welcoming kids, and orange and black balloons to let you know where to go. There will be candy for kids and even dog-friendly treats! Don’t miss the Theme House on Jefferson Avenue between Throop & Tompkins. The fun begins at 4:30. Find the Halloween 2023 map here!
Brooklyn Heights
It’s hard to find more festive blocks in The Heights than Garden Place and Grace Court Alley, which are typically blocked off from traffic in honor of the holiday. Residents go all out, constructing elaborate Halloween displays in front of the street’s historic brownstones—fake coffins, life-size mummies, smoke machines, jack-o’lanterns en masse, etc. It’s a festive and very busy scene, so go early if you want to come out of it with treats in the bucket. For a quieter but still lovely trick-or-treating experience, head to nearby streets Remsen and Joralemon.
Cobble Hill
Costumed kids and parents cram into this small Brownstone Brooklyn neighborhood for the annual Halloween parade. Afterward, the main drag of Court Street and the surrounding blocks are filled with trick-or-treaters. (Venture further down Court to Carroll Gardens for even more candy and brownstones with large front gardens tricked-out for the holiday.) Be on time: It’s not uncommon for businesses and homes to have their candy stash completely cleared out by the festive, costumed throngs early on.
Ditmas Park
Not only does Ditmas Park bring the candy and the spooky decor, but with its huge Victorian homes and wide, tree-lined streets, it’s a lovely place to revel in Halloween fun. Young ghosts and goblins gather in front of the Halloween House on the intersection of Argyle and Albemarle Roads before heading out to the rest of the nabe. Franklin Street is a popular destination for commercial trick or treating, while the brownstones between Franklin Street and Manhattan Avenue are all dressed up in spooky decor and welcoming candy-seeking children.
Dumbo usually hosts an annual DUMBOween event, in which costumed participants make their way through Dumbo and Brooklyn Bridge Park, led by live music and puppets. The parade is followed up by family-friendly activities in the Archway. Additionally, more than 40 Dumbo businesses will offer trick-or-treating at their storefronts on Halloween!
Kensington
You can feel the excitement mounting in this residential neighborhood as Halloween approaches, as more and more decorations are added to the single-family homes. Head to the numbered blocks (3rd, 4th, 5th) between Caton and Albemarle, and make sure to hit Fourth Street, which is closed to traffic and rocks out hard, with music, games, and scores of families.
Windsor Terrace
South of Park Slope and north of Kensington, Windsor Terrace is a neighborhood of residential streets with lots of houses that also really get into the holiday. Head to blocks between Vanderbilt Avenue and Fort Hamilton Parkway and don’t miss Third Street between Vanderbilt and Greenwood Avenues, which in the past, has been closed to traffic on Halloween.
The Best Trick-or-Treating Neighborhoods in the Bronx
Riverdale
The upscale ‘hood of Riverdale always makes for some good candy collecting, but the area’s neighbor, the community of Fieldston, is worthy of destination trick-or-treating. With much of it recognized as a landmarked historic district, the positively suburban-feeling area is filled with trees and beautiful houses that set the perfect backdrop for Halloween activities. (The varied architectural styles range from Tudor and Art and Crafts, to “manor” and “castle.”) There’s a good chance you’ll forget you’re in New York City.
City Island
Whether you take part in City Island’s Halloween Parade or just visit for the trick or treating, City Island is worth a visit on Halloween. The community feel is generally strong on City Island, and many doors are open to parade goers: Storefronts and homes along the parade route hand out candy to costumed partiers.
The Best Trick-or-Treating Neighborhoods in Staten Island
Mid Island
The suburban feel of Staten Island lends itself to more room and creativity, resulting in some absolutely incredible Halloween displays. Some of the best can be found in and just outside of Bulls Head. Check out the houses on Caswell Ave between Willowbrook Road and Woolley Avenue—in fact, 278 Caswell Avenue is known as “The Halloween House” and attracts tourists each year who marvel at their extravagant displays. Another hot spot are the streets that branch out from Gannon Avenue N, near Ingram Woods.
You’re going to want to send this to your special someone, because they so deserve a boo basket
Whether you’ve heard of them or not yet, boo baskets are the newest Halloween-y project that’s gone viral. How do we know? TikTok, obviously. TikTok creator @emmasemingson‘s video seems to be at the heart of the trend (though we can’t say for sure whether or not she’s the Boo Basket Originator, she definitely knows her stuff).
See? Apparently, friends, you are entitled to a basket chock full of fall and Halloween goodies and we didn’t even know it. A boo basket is basically a basket (surprise!) with all sorts of little gifts and treats to celebrate the season. Wives and girlfriends appear to make up the bulk of recipients, though, of course, you can make a boo basket for anyone in your life. In fact, there are some people who use the ‘pass it along’ method of ‘booing’ someone. They leave a basket for a friend or neighbor, and that’s their cue to make one for someone else. But, you can give them however you want!
And, sure, it may feel like they’re just another thing to worry about during an already busy season, but trust us. These are seriously adorable, and, as TikTok creator Hunter from the account @maya.and.hunter points out, if your wife sends you a video of something, go ahead and do that something.
So, we highly recommend you send this list to your boyfriend, husband, or partner with a winky emoji, just as a little hint. If you’re looking for inspiration yourself, you’re definitely in the right place, too. Either way, we’ve got all sorts of great ideas for filling your fall/Halloween gift basket for your favorite people. Choose your basket and get to creating with our picks below!

Pumpkin Spice is the magic word that makes the leave change color (we think). Even if that's not totally true, this Pumpkin Spice blend from Spiceology can be used in so. many. ways. Coffee, baking, over oatmeal, just to smell...the possibilities are pretty much endless.
Made with 100% pure avocado oil and a blend of cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, and allspice, this Pumpkin Spice Olive Oil Caviar is best with ice cream, coffee, pastries, and more.

Heading out on the town this Halloween? We’ve got the 6 top neighborhoods for trick-or-treating in Dallas
Are you looking forward to some Halloween fun with your kids in Dallas? Although we can’t ever guarantee Texas will be having crisp fall weather on Halloween night, these fun and spooky (but, you know, not too spooky) activities and places to trick or treat will help you have a great time celebrating with your little ghouls and goblins!
The following Dallas neighborhoods are known for great decorations, great candy, and welcoming hordes of Halloween fans. If you’d rather take your kids to an organized event versus door-to-door trick or treating in a neighborhood, we’ve listed some fun options for that, too. Or, go all out and combine one or more of the timed festivities with regular trick-or-treating. (Read: All. The. Candy.) Halloween only comes once a year, after all.
Highland Park is one of the city’s most beautiful neighborhoods. This walkable family-friendly community has historic homes sitting on wide streets and this neighborhood really does it up for Halloween.
2. Oak Cliff
Winnetka Heights is one of the largest historic districts and has a fun, welcoming Halloween vibe. The Kessler Park neighborhood is also known to be welcoming to trick-or-treaters. The Dallas Zoo, which is also located in Oak Cliff, has historically hosted fun, family-focused Halloween activities. Although there's nothing on their calendar for this Halloween yet, this could be a fun add-on or Halloween weekend activity if it is nice outdoors.
The streets near White Rock Lake that parallel Lakewood Boulevard and Lakewood Boulevard itself are known for epic decorations and a great candy haul. The Dallas Arboretum and Botanical Gardens is about three miles from this neighborhood. Halloweekend, scheduled for Oct. 29-30, includes trick-or-treating, a petting zoo, live music, and even a visit from Miss Texas! Halloween events are included with regular admission.
Dallas’ original historic district has a variety of architectural styles done up for Halloween. The kids will only care about the goodies, but adults might enjoy taking in the Georgian and Craftsman-style homes. It's also worth hitting up Klyde Warren Park, which is three miles Southwest of Swiss Avenue. On Sat., Oct. 29 from 5-9 p.m., the park has free trick-or-treating, costume contests, and a showing of the Halloween cult classic, Hocus Pocus. But if you're angling to fill your candy bucket, come early. Trick-or-treating takes place from 5-7 p.m., and the movie begins at 7 p.m. Note: Swiss Avenue and Munger Place are within walking distance of each other so if you’re up for it, it’s doable to hit both neighborhoods on Halloween night.
The residents of Munger Place go all out with decorations and candy. Check out Munger Place Church's Mungerfest event that’s held right before Halloween. Less than three miles from Munger Place is the AT&T Discovery District, where free Halloween fun is happening on Oct. 29 from 4-7 p.m. There will be more than 20 vendors handing out candy and other goodies.
Both Plano and Frisco are increasingly popular with families moving to the area or moving from outside Dallas. Deerfield and Singletree Trail in Plano and Panther Creek Estates in Frisco are neighborhoods outside the city limits worth checking out.
Enjoy the lighter side of Halloween when you find haunted houses for kids, Halloween train rides, and a ghostly time at the zoo
Whether you’re looking for goosebumps or screams, the Atlanta haunted house and Halloween experience scene delivers. That great for older kids who crave a thrill, zombies in the woods, and ghouls in the cornfields that will leave them breathless. But for the smaller set, glowing pumpkin displays, haunted houses for kids, and a not-too-spooky train ride will dish up tons of Halloween excitement without the terror. Start ’em young with these spooktacular Halloween experiences around Atlanta. Psst…looking for more family-friendly Halloween activities, try these.
This year at the Stone Mountain Pumpkin Festival you can play all day and glow all night. After the sun goes down, the jack-o-lanterns light up, a sillier-than-spooky Nighttime Parade commences, and you'll find plenty of other not-so-spooky glowing experiences. Although not really a haunted house, it is a little spooky at night will all the glowing jack-o-lanterns, and it's a fun event for the little ones.
Take a train of terror (and one of not-so-terror). The Family Time train is designed with younger guests in mind, and is meant to be nonthreatening and fun. Scare Time begins at sunset when the ghosts and ghouls of Pine Mountain are set loose to haunt. A total of three trains will depart every hour beginning at 6:20 each night. Closing time varies nightly – make sure to check! Ticket reservations are not required, but are highly recommended. Tickets are available on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday nights in October.
The Village is an outdoor haunt experience at the Renaissance Festival grounds that takes visitors on a tour of a village that has been cursed by evil forces. The residents have been acting strangely, and are mutating into creatures with a taste for human flesh! Better for your kids aged 13 and older, expect intense scenes and scares, character interactions, and plenty of thrills. You'll also find food, drinks, and games in the Courtyard area before or after your tour.
The Buford Corn Maze is an Atlanta Halloween tradition. Between the hayride, the bounce house, the pony rides, and the corn box (not to mention the five-acre corn maze), there's plenty here to entertain without the spook factor. But if your older kids are ready for a scary Halloween, come on Friday or Saturday night, when the haunted forest is open from 8 p.m. until midnight. Kids of all ages are allowed, but use your best judgement, and you'll need to accompany kids under 8. It's $16 for the corn maze, haunted or regular.
Timing your Six Flags visit is the key to serving up just the right amount of horror for the kids. During daylight hours, the festive Kids Boo Fest (Sep. 17-Oct. 30) is a chance for families to get treats in Trick-or-Treat Town, watch Halloween-themed shows, and jump on one of two hayrides. Once night falls, it's time for Fright Fest with terror-filled rides and wandering monsters and zombies. This one's not for the faint of heart. For families with various ages, keep the little ones in the scare-free kid zone while the big kids go exploring after dark, or stick to the day time events to keep it family-friendly.

Boo at the Zoo
courtesy Zoo Atlanta
It's not exactly a haunted house, but if you want an immersive Halloween experience that's 100% kid friendly, Boo at the Zoo is the event you've been waiting for. With a trick-or-treat trail, a costume contest, a big cast of costumed characters and plenty of fall activities, Boo at the Zoo will get your whole family in the Halloween spirit without keeping little ones up at night.
If you're not sure how well your kiddos will handle spooky after-dark activities, Fearopolis could be the perfect introduction to the haunted house experience. Kids will enjoy the competitive games like pumpkin launching and laser tag, and if they want to test their limits of fear, the haunted house gives some startles and scares without overwhelming first-timers. Please note these activities are recommended for kids over 10.
Editor's note: This experience is not confirmed for 2022.
On this haunted farm, mysterious things happen after dark. Open every Fri.-Sun., this spot offers different spooky experiences for you to choose among (or opt for all three). While they recommend visitors be 13 or older, you can purchase “Monster Protection” with your ticket and the actors will not scare those wearing it. However, animatronics are sensor-activated, so you may still experience some surprise screams.
Here are all the scary-fun Halloween events Portland families need to check out this year
If there’s one holiday Portland families totally love, it’s got to be Halloween. We love to get weird with the kids (aren’t family costumes the best?) and head out into the city in search of goodies and the coolest carved pumpkins around. Lucky for us, Halloween events Portland kids love happen pretty much all month long. So plan to take that costume out for a spin at the zoo, OMSI, and even the symphony before your little pumpkin dons it for the main event on Halloween.

Get your autumn season off to a great start with these ideas for the most photo-worthy spots that Dallas has to offer for fall
Hot summer temperatures have dipped and families are gearing up for their favorite autumn festivals. With November on the horizon and Halloween around the corner, now is the perfect time to plan all your fall family activities in Dallas. The city offers so many fun things to do, not the least including an eye-popping autumn display at the Dallas Arboretum.From corn mazes to stargazing, there are tons of ideas here to get your family out and exploring this fall.
Gabby Cullen
1. Plan a fall family road trip to nearby Fredericksburg. From hiking to local history and even a kid-friendly winery or two, there's plenty of adventure to be had in Hill Country.
3. Get everyone out to explore some of the beautiful waterfalls that the Dallas area has to offer. The area has more than you'd expect and Prarie Creek tops the list.
4. Head to the Texas State Fair, which should be brimming with fun fall activities in the barns, on the rides, and onstage. It's in town through October 23 so you have plenty of time to get in on the action.
5. Pick the perfect gourd at one of these local pumpkin patches. We know the kids will go wild for the one that offers face painting and shave ice along with Halloween activities.
6. While you are there, run through a corn maze and see how fast you can make it out! YEsterland Farm in Canton, TX opens for the season on Sep. 17 and the whole family will love it.
7. Then snag one of these pumpkin carving templates and go to town! Will your pumpkin be a cowboy or a minion this year?
8. Enjoy the cooling fall weather (and a bit of people watching!) by sitting outdoors at these restaurants with patios. Rockwall's Standard Service has live music while is the perfect excuse to get out there.
9. Build a bonfire and make s'mores. While you can do this anytime, there's something about those chilly nights that really make this a special fall activity. Amp up your s'mores game with these unique takes on the classic treat.
16. Shop your local farmer’s market. Glossy red apples, stew-worthy root veggies, and a cornucopia of squashes are waiting for you at your local farmer’s market in autumn. Get yours before the markets go on hiatus for the winter.
17. Spend a day at the Dallas Zoo. This 106-acre spot is the oldest zoo in Texas and full of fall activities with its family programs, giraffe feeding, reptile house, and so much more. You might have to come back for another day!
18. It's a crime to miss the fall season at the Dallas Arboretum. Autumn is arguably the best season there with autumnal flowers, gourds, and pumpkins all over the place.
20. Enjoy autumn views from the top of the Reunion Tower. This iconic building offers a 360-degree perspective of Dallas and its surrounding areas from a glassed-in open-air observation deck.
