No tricks, just trunks and treats on this local candy map

WICHITA, Kan. (KSNW) – Witches, goblins, and ghouls, oh my! Halloween is just around the corner, and so are trunk-or-treat events!

What is trunk-or-treat?

Trunk-or-treating began in the 1990s by church groups looking to create a safer environment for children to trick-or-treat. Instead of going door-to-door around a neighborhood, parents can take their kids to a location where cars are lined up in one area and go car-to-car. Gradually, the idea spread to other groups who often planned these events on more convenient days.

What are the benefits?

There are a lot of pros when it comes to trunk-or-treating:

Safety
Daylight
Educational
Convenience
Extra activities
More accessible
Community building
More opportunities to wear a costume
Events are typically held on a weekend

Where’s the candy?

Here is an interactive map for all of the locations listed below:
