Nearly 70 Halloween and fall events will be offered in Monroe County and nearby areas this October. Among the offerings are five trick-or-treat events and 13 trunk-or-treats.

Several of the events feature the Lake Eerie Hexenbrut , the popular local troop of dancing witches. Based on a group in Germany, Lake Eerie Hexenbrut was founded by Monroe choreographer Valinda Jonas. The women create their own outfits, which include pointy hats and long skirts. They carry brooms and lanterns and perform flash mob-styled dances, according to Monroe News archives.
