Haunted Times Ahead: Five Halloween Week Events

Oct. 26, 2024

Halloween creeps into town on Thursday, along with a few final celebrations around the North. This Wednesday, join the Grand Traverse Conservation District for a Halloween hike with a self-guided lantern stroll along the Boardman/Ottaway River and seasonal activities at the Nature Center. Also on Oct. 30, Cadillac’s Wine & Canvas teams up with Raven’s Social for a “Moonlit Raven” paint and sip from 6-8pm ($38). On Oct. 31, take the younger kiddos to Trunk ’r Treat in Bay Harbor from 4-5pm, or let the teens participate in a graveyard smash at the Petoskey District Library’s Teen Monster Mash from 4-6pm. (Spooky snacks provided, costumes encouraged, ages 12-18.) And all the vampires are hoping you’ll stop by Short’s Pull Barn in Elk Rapids for a blood drive from 1-5:30pm.
