October in the Pikes Peak region mixes family-friendly fall fun with genuinely scary haunted attractions. Cheyenne Mountain Zoo's Boo at the Zoo is a long-running family favorite, and neighborhood churches, schools and shopping centers host trunk-or-treats in the final week of the month.
In Manitou Springs, the Emma Crawford Coffin Races and Parade honor a local legend with costumed teams racing decorated coffins down Manitou Avenue — one of the region's most unusual Halloween traditions. See our Manitou Springs events page for the full lineup.
