What kids are wearing this year, and how to dress for an evening in a car park.
SuperheroSpider-Man topped the list for kids: 2.3 million of them.
PrincessA classic that never leaves the top five.
WitchThe hat does most of the work. Add a broom for the photos.
GhostOne sheet, two eye holes, done in ten minutes.

Since the 1990s
Churches started it. Parents wanted a Halloween with less gore, fewer strangers and no crossing busy roads in the dark, so congregations parked in a circle, opened their boots and handed out candy from the back. In car-dependent suburbs it simply worked better than a street of houses far apart — and a flat car park suits children with allergies, wheelchairs and strollers too.
Trunk or treat events in Lansing run from Oct 16 to Oct 31, 2026: 38 events. The busiest weekend is Oct 30 – Nov 1, with 18 events.
Yes: 9 events are on for Oct 16 – Oct 18, including HEC PTO Fall Festival, Haven House Trunk-or-Treat and Art Moehn's Trunk or Treat. Another 1 event is on nearby.
Yes: 5 of the 38 listed are free, including Trunk-or-Treat! at Goldfish Swim School of Okemos, Holiday Inn Express & Suites Lansing-Dimondale Trunk or Treat and Free Trunk Or Treat at Zap Zone XL | Zap Zone XL Lansing. Most trunk or treats are free to walk into.
Yes: 8 more events are listed within reach of Lansing, in Clarkston, Jackson, Burton and Birch Run and more. The soonest is Trunk-or-Treat in Clarkston, on Fri, Oct 16.
At 38 venues, including The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (2 dates), Haven House, Allskate Fun Center and Dansville, Michigan. Most take place in the car park of a church, school, library or community centre.
The most popular on AllEvents right now are Pinckney Spooktacular at Village of Pinckney (Sat, Oct 24), Trunk or Treat at The Fledge! (Sat, Oct 31) and Trunk or Treat at Fawcett Farms 2026! (Sun, Oct 18).
Start times run from 9:00 AM to 6:30 PM. Most begin around dusk, so the decorated trunks are lit when the children arrive, and last two or three hours.
A Halloween event where children go from car to car instead of door to door. Families park in one place — usually a church, school or community car park — open their boots, decorate them, and hand out candy from the back. It began at American churches in the 1990s as a safer, more contained alternative to trick-or-treating, and most now add a costume parade, games or a best-decorated-trunk contest.
Their costume, a treat bucket or bag, and something that glows — a glow stick or a small torch — because most events run after dark. Comfortable shoes help: a big car park is a lot of walking.
Pick a theme and fill the open boot with it. Monster mouths, pumpkin patches, haunted houses, outer space and under the sea are the favourites. Battery string lights matter most, since a car park has no sockets; then a backdrop, cobwebs or props, and a bowl of candy at the front edge.
Many are. Look for a teal pumpkin: it is the sign of a trunk handing out non-food treats such as glow sticks, stickers and small toys, part of the Teal Pumpkin Project for children with food allergies.
