Planning a last-minute Halloween outing in Metro Detroit? Check the calendar before buying tickets. Several popular family events wrapped up October 25, but some haunted attractions and special events may continue into Halloween weekend.

At a glance: what is still worth checking

Canterbury Village Halloween Stroll: The family-friendly 2026 dates ended October 25; October 30 is advertised as an adults-only night.
Erebus in Pontiac: A major indoor haunted attraction; check its official ticket calendar for remaining October dates, prices and age guidance.
Neighborhood events: Verify Halloween-day trick-or-treating, trunk-or-treats and community celebrations with the specific municipality or organizer.

Events that have already ended

Detroit Zoo's Zoo Boo ran October 3–4, 9–11, 16–18 and 23–25, 2026. It should not be promoted as an upcoming event after October 25. See the official Zoo Boo schedule.

Hallowe'en in Greenfield Village ran October 1–4, 8–11, 15–18 and 22–25. The 2026 season has ended; see The Henry Ford's event page.

Halloween Stroll: note the age restriction

Canterbury Village in Lake Orion lists October 30, 2026 as an adults-only Halloween Stroll night, not a family event. Its regular family-friendly October weekends have concluded. Check the organizer's schedule and tickets before traveling.

Before you go

Dates: Confirm that the event has not already ended.
Admission: Check ticket prices, availability and parking charges on the official site.
Age guidance: Look for adults-only sessions and haunted-house intensity warnings.
Weather: Review cancellation and refund policies for outdoor events.

Bottom line: Metro Detroit still has Halloween options, but a listing from earlier in October is not proof an event is happening this weekend. Confirm directly before making plans.

Greenfield Village at Halloween is honestly one of the best things in Metro Detroit and more people should know about it. Sad the season is already done. We keep missing it every year and telling ourselves we'll go next time.

What about the trunk or treats? My township usually does one at the rec center parking lot but I haven't seen anything posted yet. Wondering if it got cancelled or just not promoted well.

Every year people show up to Zoo Boo on Halloween weekend and wonder why nothing is happening. It always ends before the 31st. Glad this got written up somewhere.

Erebus is still going this weekend fyi. Went last year on the 29th and the line was insane but totally worth it. Get tickets online ahead of time, do not show up without them.

Took my kids to Canterbury Village last weekend and had a great time, but I'm glad someone mentioned the Oct 30 adults-only thing. My sister almost bought tickets for her whole family that night. Would have been a wasted trip from Monroe.
