The fall-like weather this weekend is setting the mood for nighttime fun at ZooBoo, a family favorite tradition at the Erie Zoo.

Things are getting spooky at the Eerie Zoo, where families can enjoy Halloween fun that’s scary, but not too scary, for visitors of all ages.

The annual event draws tens of thousands of people to the zoo for trick-or-treat booths, a visit with the talking pumpkin, dancing at the Spooky Jukebox and a chance to hear a joke from the troll at the bridge.

Families can also take a ride on the train, known this time of year as the Eerie Express.

For many families, ZooBoo is a tradition they look forward to returning to year after year.

This year’s ZooBoo runs nightly from Thursdays through Sundays, 6 to 9 p.m. through October 30.
