Psst, Halloween is next week. We aren’t here to spook you, just a reminder that now is the time to buy the face paint, tease the wig and figure out where you plan on showing off your costume this year. But if haunted houses give you the willies and you successfully avoid the Village Halloween Parade like the plague, we’ve got just the fix. Our very own Time Out Market New York has plenty of Halloween happenings this season, sure to thrill any and all ages.

Dumboween

Over 50 local businesses in Dumbo are getting in on the fun for a trick-or-treat trail, Time Out Market included. Buckets of candy will be at Lobby Bar and the Rooftop Bar, so all your kids need to do is say the phrase to get their reward. And if you need a pitstop, sit a spell and let the kids count their candy while you get a boozy treat of your own.
