Attendees will experience a fun and safe atmosphere with hundreds of large pumpkins adding to the excitement.

The fun begins at 4pm when over 75 stores and restaurants in Old Pasadena open their doors for free store-to-store trick-or-treating. Merchants will supply a variety of festive candy and confections for all the dressed up little ones in attendance until 7pm. Parents can join the fun as Old Pasadena restaurants and shops are offering hundreds of dollars in savings, from the hottest fall fashions, to home décor and even an evening out, parents can trick-or-treat this Halloween for the first time ever in Old Pasadena along side their children. Bring the little ones to the One Colorado Courtyard for free haunted photos by a professional photographer against a festive background and hundreds of pumpkins. Throughout the celebration, guests will also enjoy a unique opportunity to meet and greet with various popular Halloween costumed characters.

The spooky fun continues into the late evening as teenagers and adults are invited to visit the Old Town Haunt, Pasadena’s award-winning, and scary haunted house. Descend into the darkness at the basement of the historical Union Savings Bank Building where rumor has it, mysterious occurrences have taken place in the buildings’ deadly 107 year history including reports of hideous screams, and odors of decay. Now the building is open to the public for chilling tours into the catacombs where ghosts and goblins meet from 7pm-12am. A new lights-on, child-friendly tour and walk-thru is also available from 12pm-4pm.
