College students are not too old to trick-or-treat at BYU-Idaho’s annual Spooktacular event on Oct. 31.
The event includes a DJ and dance floor, live Mafia and Clue, trick-or-treating, Quidditch, archery and laser tag, karaoke, escape rooms and more.

Students will have a chance to win prizes in bingo and a cakewalk.
“There is no way you’ll be bored,” said Emily Matheson, a Spooktacular events coordinator.
One of the escape rooms, the River of Styx, ends with the participants canoeing through the BYU-I Hart Swimming Pool.
“There will be bones all over the pool … and we can get some green lights in there … and a low fog,” said Sam Davis, a campus event coordinator for Spooktacular. “It’s going to be sick.”

Admission includes unlimited access to all activities and one food item from the MC Crossroads.
Students can purchase tickets online for $6 or at the door for $7.
“It’s fun and it’s wholesome,” Davis said. “It’s good fun.”
