Okay, here's the deal. Halloween in Midland, TX lands on a Saturday this year, so the costumes, the candy and the trunk-or-treats get spread across two full weekends, and your calendar is about to look like a group chat on Oct. 31. We did the homework. These are the 29 trunk-or-treats and Halloween events in Midland worth getting off the couch for, in date order, from a haunted trail that will make at least one person in your group scream to costume parties where nobody is checking whether you're too old for this.
You're not too old for this. Nobody is. Bring the kids, the dog, the friend who goes way too hard on costumes, or just yourself and a bag of fun-size anything. We checked every event with the people throwing it, so you won't show up to an empty parking lot in a full-body inflatable dinosaur. Pick your nights, save them to our calendar and we'll see you out there.
