Maybe it’s the costumes. Maybe it's the candy. Maybe it’s the ‘ghosts.’ For us, it’s all the above and more that make Halloween in Redlands one of our favorite holidays.

Redlands Halloween Guide (2025)

Losing a pet is never easy. They’re part of the family, especially during the holidays. Recently, the About Redlands team had to say goodbye to one of our own, who particularly loved Halloween. Join us in celebrating your fur babies who are no longer with you by bringing a 4-by-6 photo to the Redlands Visitors Center and adding it to our Pet Ofrenda this Halloween. Write a message on our Memorial Wall honoring those you have lost.
