Looking here to let you enjoy some more Michigan's Adventure Tricks and Treats pictures.


Wrapping up a costume contest! The kids march off stage where they'd been showing off what they wore to the park.


More of the parade of kids in costumes. Also at least a couple parents holding their young ones' hands.


Not sure we'd noticed the week before (or if it were set up) but we definitely hadn't noticed these skeletons set in the cars from one of the removed kiddie rides, the flat ride with fat helicopters and spaceships that kind of look like Transformers from the front. This is in front of the Corkscrew roller coaster.


More skeltons in 'crashed' cars from old rides as the Corkscrew roller coaster ascends its lift hill.


Autumn leaves on one side of the Corkscrew roller coaster track.


Here's a view of the midway between Corkscrew and the Camp Snoopy, with some decorations but mostly trees getting more interesting to look at.


And this is a view of the Corkscrew entrance, spruced up with the heaps of straw and the gourds and everything. It looks good on the late-70s vintage ride.


Here's the canopy of leaves you start along as you walk to the (closed) waterpark area. Also where they had the Trunk-or-Treat with the cars that were from the former Be-Bop Boulevard car ride, not the bumper cars as erroneously staged in these pages the other day.


Scooby-Doo, where are you? Walking right past the Chance fiberglass carousel, that's where.


This week they had all these event tents set up and working. Yes, there's a beer garden here and no, it doesn't really make sense.


Slightly better view of the midway games set up there. The one with the sign I can make out is the Pumpkin Smash, winner every time. Except for the pumpkin.


This is part of the park near the beer garden and it's mostly here because I liked how the drops of changed autumn color spruce up the place.
