Edison Halloween Celebration Coming Up This Weekend

There's something for everyone, regardless of how much scare you care for.

EDISON, NJ — Looking for some serious frights? Rather take it easy on the scares? Regardless of how you enjoy Halloween, the Edison Rec Department will have something for everyone at this weekend's Halloween celebration at the Edison Memorial Tower.

Between 3 p.m. and 6 p.m., you can enjoy music, games, pumpkin decorating, and a magic show. There will also be a pumpkin carving contest, limited to the first 15 registered family (pumpkins provided, tools are bring-your-own).

At night, the Edison High School drama club is hosting a Trail of Horror, with plenty of scares.
