From the City of Apopka
Halloween is a thrilling celebration originating from ancient traditions. It has become a festive occasion filled with trick-or-treating, haunted houses, and costume parties. Children and adults don creative costumes, from classic ghosts and witches to modern pop culture icons, showcasing their unique flair and imagination.
Homes are often adorned with spooky decorations, flickering jack-o'-lanterns, and eerie lights, creating an enchanting atmosphere. The night is filled with a sense of adventure as communities come together to share in the excitement, making Halloween a time for both fun and fright.
In Apopka, much of that tradition is infused into a celebration held at one of its most prominent parks.
