Get those costumes ready.

Halloween is just around the corner, and Harrisburg has shared that its trick-or-treat night will take place on Thursday, Oct. 31.

The night of costumes and candy will commence at 5:30 p.m. and run through 7:30 p.m. across Harrisburg’s neighborhoods.

For even more festivities, the city plans to host its Bash at the Brownstone Halloween Party in Reservoir Park the previous week, on Wednesday, Oct. 23, from 5 to 8 p.m. The third annual event will feature free food, raffles, crafts, a magician, face painting, goat cuddling and a costume contest.

Harrisburg’s free Halloween Movie Series also kicks off tomorrow, Oct. 4, with a showing of “Haunted Mansion” at the Reservoir Park bandshell. Movie nights will take place the next three consecutive Fridays, featuring “Hocus Pocus,” “Scooby-Doo and the Witch’s Ghost” and “Coraline,” respectively.

All movies will begin at 7 p.m. and snacks and drinks will be available, while supplies last.
