Scavenger Hunt – October 10th – 31st
Celebrate Halloween in Westboro Village between October 10th and October 31st with an easy scavenger hunt for friends and family!
We’re giving away over $1,000 in prizes to be won. Seriously! You could win one of ten ghoulish goodie bags made up of treats and gifts from the amazing shops of Westboro Village. Bags are valued over $100.00.
The rules are simple:
- Between Saturday, October 10, and Thursday, October 31, look for the five spooky buds (shown below) hiding in the windows of stores and restaurants in Westboro Village, on and around Richmond Road, between Island Park and Golden Avenue. Hunt for the ghost, the bat, the jack-o’-lantern, the spider, and the skull! Take a photo of each one as you find them.
- Once you have photos of all five, submit them in one—or each—of the following ways, whichever is easiest for you:
- Post them individually in the comments of our Wickedly Westboro post, pinned to the top.
- Post them to Instagram, using #WickedlyWestboro2025. (We’ll be able to see your entries, as long as you use this hashtag and your account is not private.)
- Email them to wickedly@westborovillage.com.
BONUS: You can enter up to three different ways to increase your chance of winning! One entry for each way you submit the photos.
You have until October 31st at midnight to submit your entry photos. Any questions? Just email wickedly@westborovillage.com or send us a direct message on Facebook or Instagram.
