Webster Parish Libraries launched its annual Trunk-or-Treat events in Fall 2021 to offer a safe, family-friendly alternative to traditional trick-or-treating while fostering community connections with local businesses. Quickly embraced in both northern and southern parts of the parish, the event has grown in popularity each year. Held on or just before Halloween, the celebration invites children to trick-or-treat from the creatively decorated trunks of vehicles sponsored by local organizations—bringing the entire community together in festive spirit.
Trunk or Treat Lane: Wander through rows of creatively decorated trunks, each one offering a unique and themed experience. From haunted houses to magical kingdoms, enjoy a variety of eye-catching designs and delicious treats as you visit each trunk. Bring your bags and prepare for an abundance of candy and goodies!
Library Attraction House: Scene it! The show doesn’t stop at the trunks! Step inside our movie-themed attraction house and journey through a collection of unforgettable scenes inspired by the magic of the big screen. From adventure and fantasy to timeless classics and family favorites, each room offers a new cinematic experience filled with fun details, interactive moments, and plenty of surprises. Whether you’re a movie buff or just along for the treats, you’ll feel like you’ve stepped right into the action. Grab your ticket, follow the scenes, and see where the story takes you!
Admission: There is no charge to attend this event or to participate in any of the activities offered. As a public library system and an active community hub, our mission is to bring communities together and provide equal access to resources for all. While admission and participation are free, we encourage attendees to sign up for a library card at no cost and to explore the wide range of services our libraries provide.
