October, the nightmare of all dentists. Spooky season is peaking like a vampire's fangs. Wise is hosting a trick-or-treat event at the Big Glades tomorrow, 5-7 p.m. A costume contest happens at 6:30 p.m., and a showing of 'The Haunted Mansion' screens at 7 p.m. Town-wide trick-or-treating takes place Oct. 31, 5-7 p.m. Please be responsible and check your children's candy.
