Wyomissing’s annual Halloween celebration will return to Happy Hollow Playground later this month, transforming the park into “Spooky Hollow” for an afternoon of games, activities, and seasonal fun.
The carnival is scheduled for Saturday, October 25, from 2 to 5 p.m. A rain date is set for Sunday, October 26. Admission is free and open to the public.
Families can expect carnival-style games, crafts, a photo booth, balloon art, and an inflatable obstacle course. The Haunted Pavilion, organized by the borough’s Recreation Committee Student Advisory Committee, will also return, offering visitors a chance to test their nerves in a spooky setting.
Food and refreshments will be available for purchase from several local vendors, including Kona Ice, The Spanish Soul Food Truck, Le Petit Macaron Shoppe, and Bop Hop Cotton Candy.
Costume judges will circulate throughout the event, awarding prizes for creative and festive attire. Special guests portraying Wednesday and Morticia Addams are also expected to make appearances during the afternoon.
The day will conclude with a showing of The Addams Family animated movie on the field at Happy Hollow.
The event is made possible through support from local organizations and businesses, according to the borough.
