Halloween can be a scary holiday for kids (and even adults). Explore the lighter side of the season in Rhode Island with a trip to one coastal village that transforms into a Halloween wonderland each year. With plenty of activities for the kids, a costume parade, and not-so-spooky decorations, there’s nothing quite like a Wickford Halloween.

The historic village of Wickford is a timeless seaside locale loaded with charm. Each year it hosts Wickford Village Wicked Week to celebrate the excitement of autumn and Halloween.
