When most people think of trick-or-treating, they imagine costumed children walking door to door in a suburban cul-de-sac and gathering candy from all the neighbors. However, that is not to say that city kids are left out of the Halloween festivities. The city recently announced expanded Halloween hours for Open Streets in honor of the holiday, museums and neighborhood organizations put on family-friendly events, and stores and restaurants get in on the fun by handing out treats to costumed visitors. Additionally, from doormen handing out candy to townhouse owners decorating their stoops, residential buildings can get in the spirit of spooky season. We take a look at listings in some of the most popular neighborhoods for trick-or-treating.

From Halloween Fest 2022 in Fort Greene Park to BAMBoo!, Brooklyn Academy of Music's free block party, there is no shortage of things to do for Halloween in Fort Greene.
