Charleston, S.C. is buzzing with excitement as Halloween quickly approaches! Children across the Lowcountry are gearing up to don their scariest, silliest, or most creative costumes in search of treats in every neighborhood. But here’s the burning question on every parent’s mind: will Halloween still happen on Thursday, October 31st? The answer is a resounding yes!
While Halloween lands on a weekday this year, families can still partake in all the spooky festivities. Some smaller communities may have designated special dates for Trick or Treating, but fear not, most areas here in the Lowcountry will continue the beloved tradition on the actual Halloween date. That means costumed kiddos can still collect candy from neighbors after school!
Typically, trick-or-treating kicks off at dusk, around the time the sun begins to set, and often lasts until 8 or 9 p.m. Households in the area are known to turn off their porch lights once they run out of goodies or decide they’ve had enough for the night. So, keep an eye out for those glowing beacons of Halloween cheer!
For those families who prefer a more controlled environment or want to avoid the traditional door-to-door style, there are plenty of trunk-or-treat events happening around town. These gatherings are a fantastic way to celebrate Halloween safely, with creative vehicle displays and yummy sweets. Here’s a rundown of some local trunk-or-treat events you won’t want to miss:
As the days creep closer to Halloween, families are planning their costumes and stocking up on candy. For those feeling a bit overwhelmed, take a breath! There are lots of resources available online to help with costume ideas and party planning tips. You can even get creative with treats to hand out or unique decorations for your doorstep to make your house stand out.
After trick-or-treating, don’t forget to think ahead to the Thanksgiving celebrations. For busy families, stores are already preparing with Thanksgiving dinner kits, making it easier than ever to enjoy those holiday feasts without all the early morning hustle. Whether you’re hosting a meal yourself or contributing to a gathering, having a kit could be a perfect solution!
This Halloween, whether you’re hitting the streets in search of candy, skip from trunk to trunk, or just hand out treats at home, make sure to soak in the joy and laughter the holiday brings. So grab your pumpkin spice lattes, put those costumes on, and get ready for a fantastic night of frights and treats in Charleston!
