Halloween in Oklahoma City is pure magic — cool nights, cozy costumes, and neighborhoods decked out in spooky charm. Whether you’re searching for the perfect family-friendly outing or want to stroll through historic streets lined with jack-o’-lanterns, these are the Top 5 Trick-or-Treating Activities in OKC and Edmond you won’t want to miss this year.
A true OKC tradition, Haunt the Zoo is the metro’s largest and most beloved Halloween event. Families stroll through the zoo’s scenic pathways collecting candy from themed trick-or-treat stations surrounded by festive fall décor — all while spotting their favorite animals along the way.
Dates: Weekends in October (Oct 4–5, 11–12, 18–19, 25–26)
Location: Oklahoma City Zoo & Botanical Garden, 2000 Remington Place
Good to Know: Costumes are encouraged (just skip the full masks and scary props), and tickets sell out fast — so grab yours early.
Why It Ranks #1: Safe, stroller-friendly, and filled with photo ops — Haunt the Zoo is a can’t-miss classic for OKC families.
Step into a fairy-tale Halloween at Edmond’s Storybook Forest, where families wander a wooded trail lined with life-size scenes from classic stories like The Three Little Pigs and Cinderella. Kids collect candy at each stop, roast s’mores around the campfire, and enjoy hayrides under the stars.
Dates: October 23–30 | 5:30–8:30 PM
Location: Spring Creek Park, 7200 E 15th St., Edmond
Tickets: Advance purchase required; limited nightly spots.
Why It Ranks #2: Magical, non-scary, and set among the trees — it’s the perfect Halloween outing for younger kids and families who prefer whimsy over fright.
No Halloween season in OKC is complete without Pumpkinville, the Myriad Botanical Gardens’ annual fall festival that transforms downtown into a pumpkin-filled wonderland. With thousands of pumpkins, hay mazes, crafts, games, and live entertainment, it’s a daytime must-do for families.
Dates: October 3–20 | Open Daily 10 AM–5 PM
