Favourite Halloween Haunts

This is the time of year when the days seem shorter, the morning air is crisper and Orangeville gets... SPOOKIER. Grab your comfiest sweater or scariest costume and summon the spirit of this festive season. Here are three scary, tasty, and tricky ways to experience Halloween in Orangeville this month.

Decorated Downtown

A cast of fun and mysterious characters adorn our downtown streets and Alexandra Park. Snap a photo with your favourite ghouls or join the Witches Walk Scavenger Hunt and find 10 wicked and whimsical witches in our downtown storefront windows. Get your scavenger hunt ballots at Moguls in Mocean or Sproule's Emporium for a chance to win one of three downtown Orangeville kids prize packs worth $75! 

Do you prefer to get your chills from a distance? Take a thrilling drive through Orangeville's most decorated neighbourhoods. Orangeville Hallowe'en Haunt Patrol has prepared a list of must-see homes trimmed for Halloween.

Possessed by Pumpkin

Orangeville is the perfect place to get your pumpkin fix. Indulge in seasonal offerings at our cafes and bakeries like pumpkin spice coffee from Mochaberry, a pumpkin pie milkshake from Mill Creek Gardens or a pumpkin spice latte cheesecake from Taphouse Brewing Co.

If your sweet tooth needs a break, immerse yourself in pumpkin scents and decor. Savour the alluring aroma of pumpkin bourbon scented candles from Orangeville's own Kindmoose Candle Co., sold online or at More Than Just Baskets. Fill your home with orange-hued decor from Pear Home or incorporate some fun fashion accessories into your wardrobe with a pumpkin spice latte scrunchie from Honey Bee Apothecary and Spa.

Terrifying Tours

Discover Orangeville's spooky history with two new bone-chilling walking tours. You can choose to embark on a frightening self-guided journey or follow ghoulish tour guides in an immersive lantern-lit experience. Either way, there are plenty of unsettling stories in Orangeville's past.

After enjoying the Halloween fun, nestle in for a meal prepared from the bounty of the harvest at one of our local eateries or treat yourself to a uniquely Canadian performance presented by Theatre Orangeville at our historic Opera House.

New Utility Box Art

Four new colourful art pieces created by local artists have transformed functional utility boxes into lively works of art as part of the Town of Orangeville’s Utility Box Art Display Program. The program, which launched in 2016, recognizes local artists, celebrates the Town’s culture and history, and promotes Orangeville as an arts and culture hub for the region. There are now 34 pieces of original works of art adorning Orangeville utility boxes.

Dahlias by Candice Tatem

Location: 326 Broadway

Sponsored by Orangeville Hydro

Created in the impasto style of painting, "Dahlias" captures the bright and colourful blooms of dahlias in early autumn. With its bold colour and distinct shapes, the piece represents the anticipation and then joy when cultivating a garden full of blooms.

The Magic of Trees by Michele Johnston

Location: 44 Broadway

Sponsored by Orangeville Hydro

The Magic of Trees is an acrylic painting on canvas created by the artist, using mostly her fingers and hands. It captures the magic of the forest and illustrates how a forest is more than ‘still and green,’ but is actually teeming with life and movement.

On Frozen Pond by Judi Island

Location: Intersection of Centennial Road and Dawson Road

On Frozen Pond depicts a popular past time while combining themes of nature, local landscape, history, and sport. The piece was created with acrylic paint and features three boys playing hockey on a frozen pond; a scene which is both timeless and typical on the ponds during winter months in Orangeville.

GlassHive by Beckie Morris

Location: Dragonfly Park

GlassHive is a digital drawing inspired by the wildflowers that flourish in its location. The artist utilized a honeycomb pattern to represent the local bee population. Each hexagonal cell includes a collection of colours, patterns, and lines that can be enjoyed passively from a distance as a geometric piece or up close with its glasslike layers.
