Trick or Treat, smell my feet, give me something good to eat! It feels like just the other day I was counting down the hours until school ended so I could start trick or treating. But now that I am older I am looking for adult ways to celebrate this childhood tradition. Are you still looking for ways to celebrate Halloween this year? Check out these spooktacular events that will help you celebrate in style!

Freakeasy presents Day of the Dead
Chicago’s Burning Man scene congregates at the Metro for levels of revelry. The 
DJ lineup is nuts—Phuture, Justin Long, Michael Serafini, Nate Manic & Duke Shin, Gene Hunt, etc., etc. It’s wonder other clubs have local house talent to man the decks. Plus, there’s burlesque, video projections, live art and pyrotechnics. A lot of fire, folks.Metro/Smart Bar. Oct 31 at 9pm. $20, advance $17.
Northhalsted Halloween Parade

is for certain you will be entertained the whole night! Oct 31 at 7pm. Halsted between Belmont Ave and Addison St. Free.
Rosemary’s Baby 
Get spooked. Watching the restored version of the film will definitely get you in the Halloween mood. Music Box. Oct 28 at 5pm and 9:40pm; Oct 29 at 7pm; Oct 30–31 at 5pm. $9.25.
