It’s never too early to start plotting your Halloween adventures here in the Motor City area, whether you’re a fan of scary outings or more keen on family-friendly costume parties. One unique drive-through Halloween event near Detroit combines the best of both worlds, offering both a kid-friendly candy collection and a few spooky outdoor displays. Mark your calendars for this upcoming October delight.
The 2021 Twisted Trunk or Treat event will take place on Saturday, October 23rd. This awesome Halloween outing can be accessed via the Shiawassee Basin Preserve ballfields parking area in Davisburg.
While you’ll have to make an hour-long trip from the Motor City to reach your destination, we think this event is worth heading out for. Costumes, candy, and plenty of haunted excitement await you here.
This unique Halloween gathering is set up as a drive-thru event to make admission even more seamless for those who stop by. Guests 16 and under can pre-register for the trunk-or-treating portion.
If you’re simply chauffeuring or accompanying younger guests, you’ll enter free of charge. For younger visitors who plan to take home some candy, the cost is just $3 (residents) or $5 (non-residents).
Your jaunt through the haunted park will take approximately 30 minutes. To add a dash of creativity and color to Twisted Trunk or Treat, attendees are encouraged to decorate their cars with seasonal flair.
In fact, if you’d like to raise the stakes, you can even snap a photo of your car and submit it to the Springfield Township Parks and Rec department for consideration in their annual contest. Talk about fun!
During the drive, keep your eyes peeled for ghouls and goblins who might lurk throughout the park. Half the excitement comes as visitors peruse the spooky decor at each and every stop along the route.
When you’re ready for a family-friendly Halloween outing to round out your fall plans, add this gem in Davisburg to your itinerary. You’ll be immersed in the spirit of the season in no time at all.
