Get Ready for Spooks and Good Deeds: The Fort St. John Co-op Haunted Halloween Walk
As the crisp autumn air settles and the leaves finish crunching beneath our boots, spook season reaches its peak in Fort St. John. Mark your calendars for October 30 and 31 to catch the ultimate mix of Halloween scares and community fundraising!
The Fort St. John Co-op Haunted Halloween Walk, supported by McDonalds, Fort Motors, and The Historic Red Barn Pub & Grill, is bringing spine-tingling scares, community cheer, and Halloween magic to one of our town’s favorite natural trails – Fish Creek.
What to Expect at Fish Creek
The Haunted Walk transforms the familiar pathways of Fish Creek into a spooky realm where ghosts, ghouls, and creatures of the night come out to play. Designed to give visitors of all ages a fun Halloween thrill, in hopes of it becoming a staple tradition for families, friends, and fright fans alike.
Throw on your spookiest costume or layer up for the cold! You’re in for creepy trail scenery, live performances, and loads of Halloween excitement thanks to our amazing community volunteers.
