The benefit to being an "adult" is that the best holiday Halloween (sorry, Christmas) doesn't just fall on one scary day. Nope. The entire month of October is filled with opportunities to slather yourself in fake blood and pervertedly eye young'uns in slutty nurse costumes. 

Because you need to know where to wear your pregnant nun costume, County Grind created the ultimate Broward and Palm Beach County guide to Halloween happenings. 

The guide will be constantly updated, so don't forget to check back regularly. If you feel like we've missed any events, please let us know by emailing [email protected].
