Superheroes, ghouls, goblins and fairy princesses … the streets of Western Extension will once again be brimming with a bounty of treats this Halloween.

On October 31, from 14:00 to 17:00, Russel Street and the surrounding area will once again become a witches’ playground, with a beastly best-dressed competition for both little ones and big kids brewing at Big G’s Quarter Deck.

Bare your teeth, bring a monstrous appetite for fun and pack your buckets for the year’s most ‘spook-tacular’ walk through one of the city’s oldest suburbs.

Entry to the walk is free, but donations towards the Benoni SPCA are welcome.

Point your brooms towards the veld in Elston Avenue to register, then head over to The Place on Victoria Avenue in time for the “Ready, set, boo!” signal.
