Ghosts and ghouls filled the quiet streets of Peaks Island for Halloween, some on foot, some on the island's ubiquitous golf carts.
The evening began with trick-or-treating, then ended at the Lions Club where the annual costume contest was held, along with a Wizard of Oz-themed haunted house full of costumed actors and jump scares.
Staff photographer Ben McCanna captured all the color of the night.
