Check the sources that don't advertise: library calendars, parks and recreation listings, neighborhood association pages, school and church flyers, and city event roundups, most published in late September. Trunk-or-treats, costume parades, pumpkin-carving meetups, and downtown merchant trick-or-treats are almost always free. Build a season list in one sitting in early October, because the good ones happen once and don't repeat.
Check each event, since policies split evenly: many street festivals and brewery events welcome leashed dogs, while farms, food-focused markets, and anything with livestock usually prohibit them. If dogs are welcome, bring water and a mat, skip the costume unless your dog genuinely tolerates it, and be honest about crowd stress. Some events run dedicated dog costume parades, the best of both worlds.
The mundane stuff outranks the spooky stuff: watch curbs and cobblestones in the dark, keep phones charged with the meeting point saved offline, and stay with the group between stops rather than lagging for photos. Stick to well-reviewed operators whose routes stay in trafficked areas. Going solo? Share the tour name and end time with someone, standard night-out practice.
