Enjoy the last of the warm sun!

These Halloween outings in and around Pittsburgh bring just enough kid-sized spookiness to trick-or-treating, trolley rides, corn mazes, pumpkin adventures, and autumn-inspired crafts.

The stage awaits you this week in Pittsburgh.

Be warned: hitting up every event in our biggest-ever guide to Pittsburgh’s autumn and Halloween events will leave you in grave condition. So pace yourself for 31 days of apple everything, pumpkin carving, fresh-pressed cider, steam engines, historical reenactments, and one-ton gourds so massive they’ll stop you dead.

Pittsburgh’s pumpkin patches are no longer just garden variety places to grab a Halloween gourd. Now they’re autumnal extravaganzas, with everything from hayrides and petting zoos to mini golf, zip lines, pumpkin-launching cannons, and on-site eateries. If Linus had to wait for the Great Pumpkin here, he could do a lot worse.

Hurry to these spots before all the leaves fall down!

Autumn welcomes you into Pittsburgh this week.

Fall brings new ingredients into the kitchen spotlight.

The city is starting to get spooky!
