Make Halloween night a neighborhood adventure with Spooky Trails. Spooky Trails is a simple way for families, friends and neighbors to create and share their own trick-or-treating trails. Create a private Spooky Trail for your neighborhood, school community or group of friends, then invite others to join using the trail name and password. Households taking part can add their location to the map, so everyone knows where the Halloween fun is happening. How it works Create a trail or join one that’s already been set up. Add your home to the trail if you’re welcoming trick-or-treaters. Drop a pumpkin on your address and add a note if there’s anything visitors should know. When Halloween night arrives, open the shared map and see all the participating homes along your trail. Find the next pumpkin, plan your route or simply wander from one spooky stop to the next. Perfect for: • Neighborhood trick-or-treating • Families and groups of friends • Apartment buildings and residential communities • Schools and local Halloween events • Anyone who wants to make Halloween a little more fun Trails are private and protected by a password, so they’re designed to be shared with the people you choose rather than published for everyone to see. No more wondering which houses are taking part. No more walking three streets to find the next bowl of candy. Just grab your costume, open the map and follow the pumpkins. Happy haunting!
