Since my last post I’ve come across some other Halloween events by word of mouth and from surfing on the Internet of course. I thought I’d share them in case you are still looking for fun things to do to celebrate Halloween in Toronto & surrounding area!
Markham Museum is holding Scaryfest on Saturday October 29 from 5- 8pm and Sunday October 30 from 3- 8pm for children 10 yrs and under. $6 for adults, $5 for seniors/students, $4 for kids (ages 2 and under are free). No food or drinks will be sold onsite (candy will be given out).
“Trick or treat your way around the Museum grounds where you will encounter lively and not so lively characters! Our boo-scary Blacksmith will be working his forge to a frenzied heat – make sure you stop in and hear the anvil clanking!

Mel, great list but the dates confuse me. I thought Saturday and Sunday before Halloween were October 27/28 and Halloween is Wednesday October 32, 2012.
Wait- this is last year! Erase erase! Im losing my mind. Going to look at this year’s posts now. Sorry.
