Bronxites craving a good scare visited Westchester Square for the third annual Halloween at the Square on Monday, October 31.
Hosted by Councilman James Vacca and the Westchester Square Business Improvement District, the frighteningly fun event for the whole family featured a massive haunted house attraction, horse-drawn hayrides, live music, candy giveaways and a children’s costume contest.

Creepy clown Gilbert Toglia did an excellent job scaring people as they left the haunted house.
