Halloween events in St. Louis

Science gets spooky at the Saint Louis Science Center's annual Halloween party! Bring your little ghouls, goblins, astronauts and dinosaurs to this Halloween event for hands-on, spell-binding science. You can even get spooked in the Haunted Lab as you make your own slimy creation.

Dress up your little goblins for the Monsters on the Meadows Halloween Festival at the Meadows of Lake Saint Louis. There will be free pumpkin painting, trick or treating, face painting, giveaways and lots more.

At the Historic St. Charles Pumpkin Glow you and your family can bask in the glow of carved pumpkins throughout the historic district while the merchants along Main Street stay open late to offer Halloween goodies and tastings. 

Your family is invited to join the friendly ghosts and howling goblins at the free Halloween Hoopla in Fronteir Park.

Bring your kids and your dog to the Purina Farms Trunk or Treat! In addition to plenty of treats for your two-legged and four-legged little ones, there will be face painting, games, balloon animals and a family entertainment area. Advance tickets are required.

Mummies and daddies are invited to bring their little ghouls and goblins to a day of Halloween fun at the St. Louis Zoo's Spooky Saturday. Free admission from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m.

Kids can get creative at this drop-off, five-hour art workshop where they'll make and wrap four gifts, giving you plenty of time to hit the shops.
