Come See Us Today at Moon Halloween Spooktacular!

By Emily Papa, Macaroni KID Publisher October 19, 2022

Hello my MacKIDFam! Happy Wednesday! 

Are you in full fall mode? I'm still working on it lol. If you are looking for something to do today to get you in the Halloween spirit, stop by the Moon Halloween Spectacular Trunk-or-Treat and say hi to us! Or bring us a hot chocolate cause y'all KNOW it's gonna be cold! But bundle up because this event is happening; rain, shine, or (dare I say it?) SNOW! This will be our first Trunk or Treat of the season that we will be able to cross off our Fall Bucket List

I don't know if people are trying to make up for missing two years during COVID, but I feel like there are SO many events going on right now! To help you navigate, we have season long fall attractions and events, PYO Apples and Pumpkins in our Fall Guide; but because events are being added daily, you will find the most up-to-date info on the event calendar and for even more events outside the Pittsburgh West - Robinson area, check out the event calendar in our Facebook Group - Things to do With Kids in Pittsburgh


Speaking of bucket lists, two weekends ago we took the kids to Pittsburgh Zombie Assault and this past weekend we survived Phantom Fright Nights at Kennywood. The kids had such a blast from the moment we for there, and they were handed media badges for "Influencer Day." 


My little influencers




The kids loved seeing the parts of Kennywood all dressed up for Haunts!


We had a behind the scenes tour of the Malice and Wonderland "choose your destiny" maze.


We got to watch make-up demos with the actors and met Chris Pope, the Make-up Manager who creates all the mask and props at Kennywood by hand with his partner Nick Kardos. 

The whole day was a super fun experience, and hopefully you caught some of our fun stories on social media.

Until next time my friends!
