Costumed kids aged 2 to 12 and their families trick-or-treat after hours in the Zoo, enjoy elaborate yet “not-too-spooky” decorations, and interact with more than 70 costumed characters in professional makeup. in addition more than 20 treat stations are hosted by local community groups who, in keeping with the Zoo’s conservation mission, distribute candy that is either palm oil-free, or contains sustainably produced palm oil. This type of candy or oil is healthier for the animals in case they eat some candy or a wrapper.
Older kids can brave the Scare Zone and younger ones enjoy spooky storytelling with Mother Goose, along with mazes and games. The Boo Choo Choo train offers an adventure, the Zoo’s popular dinosaur Duncan the T. Rex makes appearances, and live creepy-crawly animal encounters are held nightly. Plus a Princess Pavilion offers photo opps for the young beauties, plus there’s an eerie graveyard, fantasy lagoon with pirates and mermaids, pumpkin patch maze, and more.
