PASADENA Calif.—Join the City of Pasadena Parks, Recreation and Community Services Department (PRCS) for a howling good time during its newest event, Giggles & Screams, on Saturday, Oct. 29, from 3-8 p.m. at La Pintoresca Park, 45 E. Washington Blvd. This event is free and open to the public.
Roam through the haunted house, ride the trackless train of fright, and prowl through the trunk-or-treat area! Enjoy carnival games and FANG-tastic song hits played by the DJ. Whether you’re looking for giggles or screams, there’s something for the whole family to enjoy.
The “Giggles” hours, 3-5 p.m., are designed for the little ones to enjoy and include a costume contest, trunk-or-treat goodies, trackless train rides, “little goblins” play zone, and lights-on tours through the haunted house from 4-5 p.m.
The “Screams” hours begin at sunset. Test your fright factor between 5-8 p.m. at the haunted house (ages 12 and older) and creepy clown train ride (all ages).
Attendees will also enjoy family-friendly game booths, face painting, a photo area, and more! Food will be available for purchase.
Pasadena Public Health Department staff will be on site from 3-6 p.m. offering COVID-19 vaccine boosters and flu vaccine to everyone age 6 months and older. Minors attending the vaccine clinic must be accompanied by a parent or legal guardian.
