Halloween Safety Tips

Halloweenbrings an evening of fun and festivities. Use extra caution when driving because of the additional pedestrians outside. If you plan to drink alcohol, don’t drive; and don’t allow others to drive if they have been drinking. Take action to ensure that party guests get home safely. In 2023, nearly half of all crash fatalities during Halloween night were alcohol related.

Halloween Safety Tips to prepare for a safe and enjoyable Halloween:

For Trick-or-Treaters:

• Costume Safety – it should fit well to avoid tripping & masks shouldn’t obstruct vision
• Be Visible – carry a flashlight & wear reflective stickers or gear, if possible
• Travel in Groups in Familiar Areas – stay in well-lit areas & carry a cell phone
• Use Sidewalks & Cross at Intersections – look for cars in all directions & obey signs
• Never Enter a Stranger’s House or Car – only visit houses with a porch light on
• Don’t Pet Unfamiliar Dogs & Cats – extra holiday activity can make pets startle easily
• Have an Adult Inspect Candy First – especially if children have food allergies

For Drivers:

• Slow Down & Be Prepared to Stop – drive at reduced speeds & be extra alert for children that may run across the street suddenly
• Turn Headlights On – watch for kids in dark costumes, especially at dusk

For Homeowners & Party Hosts:

• Keep Holiday Décor & Candy Out of Reach from Babies & Pets – decorations can present choking, flammable, or toxic dangers for young toddlers & dogs
• Clear Walkways and Steps – look for tripping hazards like loose stones or falling risks
• Turn On Porch Lights & Yard Lights – help trick-or-treaters avoid uneven pavement
• Secure Pets – keep pets that may be confused or overstimulated in a separate room if there’s a risk they may run away or jump on strangers at the door
• Choose Safe Decorations – candles can become a fire hazard if left unattended – consider using battery-operated candles inside jack-o’-lanterns as a safer alternative
• Help Guests Get Home Safely – choose a designated driver, schedule ridesharing or taxis, offer guests the option to sleep over, & provide non-alcoholic beverages
