Calling all Halloween Houses!

Halloween Houses can be either a Safe House or Scare House, either way there must be lollies! Dress up your houses as much or little as you like, there’s no limit to what you might do as long as you remember the age of the children that will visit. Halloween Houses will have orange and black balloons on their gate or letterboxes. Once a Halloween House is all lollied out, they will remove their balloons

Please get in touch with me if you want to be a Halloween house, please let me know as soon as possible- the more houses the better – balloons will be provided.

To register as a Halloween House email: TrickOrTreatOxford@gmail.comor message us on Facebook: @TrickOrTreatOxford
