Trick or Treat at the Cox House

Children and their families are invited to trick or treat at the historic E. St. Julien Cox House on Halloween. The house will be styled to reflect the spirit of the holiday and open for visitors to explore. Halloween was a fashionable holiday to celebrate in the Victorian era, magazines printed Halloween recipes, decorating ideas, and games. In the late 1800s, Halloween was about community and neighborly get-togethers in recognition of quaint customs of days gone by.
