Check out these trunks or treat events in the area!

⚠️ UPDATE 10/8: Two corrections to this graphic:
• The Arby’s trunk-or-treat scheduled for Oct. 9 has been canceled.

• Asbury United Methodist Church’s trunk-or-treat is Oct. 17, not Oct. 24. I inadvertently pulled information for a church with the same name in Maryland. I’m sorry for the error.

We’re also continuing to add newly announced events as they come in. For the most current list and details, check our live Fall Fun Guide: bit.ly/ErieFallFun2026
