If you find yourself looking beyond the pumpkin patch this year for Halloween activities, the following considerations are sure to delight your frights. 

Ever wonder what happens in the Jane Bancroft Cook Library, at night? This year’s fourth annual Library After Dark will take place Friday, Oct. 29 from 6:30 p.m. to 9:30 p.m. The event will host activities such as tarot reading, button making, rock and mini-canvas painting and treats. From 6:30 p.m. to 7 p.m., Assistant Professor of Epidemiology Kristopher Fennie will be presenting “Truth is Grosser than Fiction,” a presentation on the horrors of human corporeality. 

Maybe fluorescent lighting isn’t your thing. In that case, the Halloween Garden Party, hosted by the Council of Green Affairs (CGA) will take place on Sunday, Oct. 31 from 4:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. The evening will feature an open mic night jam session, pumpkin painting and seasonal snacks. Costumes are encouraged, as well as bringing your own water bottle, mug, outdoor blanket and bug spray. 

Finally, Dante’s Inferno, this year’s Halloween Center of the Universe Party (COUP) will be held Saturday, Oct. 30 from 10 p.m. to 3 a.m. The night is scheduled to feature student DJ sets throughout the residential campus and live bands in Z-Amphitheater.
