In the River City, Halloween is a Big Deal! What else would you expect from a city known for its vibrant festivities? Just like the other great celebrations that make our region famous, Jacksonville Mom has Halloween covered, from trick-or-treating to costumes to parades to cocktails.

Similar to all of our celebrations in Jacksonville, there are family-friendly ways to enjoy the many Halloween-themed festivities in our area. From the park to the zoo to our very own Halloween parade, Jacksonville Mom contributors are on top of all the events where you can share the Spooky Spirits with your kids.

One of Jacksonville Mom’s best contributions to the local parenting community is our comprehensive guides, where we explore all kinds of activities and events that are perfect for families.

Of course, Jacksonville Mom stays on top of the latest information on Trick-or-Treating. Our writers follow the Halloween happenings from all around our great area, including the beaches, St. Johns, Orange Park, and more. And as always, the comprehensive Jacksonville Mom events calendar features everything going on in October.

What about Halloween costumes? We look at whether it’s better to make or buy them. And if you’re wondering if you’re living in a haunted house, have a look at this piece from one contributor who thinks there may be a ghost hanging around.

And it’s not all ghosts and goblins at Jacksonville Mom. Our writers love all things about the Fall season, from pumpkin patches to cider cocktails. We even look at how Oktoberfest can be a new Jacksonville tradition.
