From a not-so-spooky concert to an encounter with the Headless Horseman, Hamilton County has so many fun Halloween happenings to choose from! Headless Horseman Oct. 12-15, 19-22 and 26-29 Location: Conner Prairie, Fishers The highlight of the festival again this year will be haunted hayrides through the darkness in a land terrorized by the Headless Horseman. The hayride paths have been extended to improve the overall guest experience; rides will transverse a different path than years before and they’ll be longer. A barrel-train ride will also be an attraction for younger children. New this year: check out the brand-new Conner Prairie Corn Maze, open during Headless Horseman evenings. Re-Boo, Re-Wear, Re-Scare Saturday, Oct. 14 and Oct. 21, 1-4 p.m. Location: Cool Creek Nature Center, Carmel Join Hamilton County Parks & Recreation for their annual Halloween costume swap. Bring an unwanted costume or accessory and SWAP it for another one. This is a great way to reuse costumes that no longer fit and save money at the same time.
