A rain-soaked forecast for Trick or Treat night caused some anxiety for local parents in the days leading up to the event. Ultimately, the weather turned out to be dry–and exceptionally mild–between the hours of 6 and 8 p.m., but as a precaution, large-scale indoor Trick or Treat events were planned in and around Hellertown, possibly for the first time.
When is Trick-or-Treat in Hellertown borough and Lower Saucon Township this year? For some this will be easy to remember, since it is on their preferred date of Halloween.
Stop by the 1872 Hellertown Jail on Laubach Street during Trick or Treat night in Hellertown (Thursday, Oct. 31, 6 to 8 p.m.) for some scary stories and great treats.
Before you head out to trick-or-treat, enjoy a Halloween movie for the older crowd at the Hellertown Area Library on Thursday, Oct. 31 at 2 p.m. The library will screen “Hocus Pocus” at 2 p.m. Costumes are optional. Snacks will be provided. For more information contact the library.
