Families can visit the Creepy Creature Encounter in the Winnick Family Children’s Zoo, Pumpkin Patch Place at Eucalyptus Grove, Halloween Down Under in Australia and the Birds of Halloween located across from World of Birds Show.

Boo at the Zoo features amazing pumpkin-carving demonstrations, face painting and trick-or-treating throughout the Zoo.
