It’s the spooky time of year once again and there’s no shortage of haunts, treats and sweets available this Halloween.

Several events are held throughout the weekend in Sequim and the surrounding area for children and adults. Some require admission while others are free and some have stipulations for entry, so plan accordingly.

Through Oct. 31

• Pumpkin Patch fun

Sequim’s Pumpkin Patch and corn maze is open and ready for business. The Pumpkin Patch, a 33-acre farm at the corner of U.S. Highway 101 and Kitchen-Dick Road is open from noon-6 p.m. Monday-Friday (9-10 a.m. for field trips) and 10 a.m.-6 p.m. Saturdays and Sundays through Tuesday, Oct. 31.

Co-owner Theresa Lassila said the corn maze this year features an “Alice in Wonderland” theme designed by brother-and-sister duo Eric and Amanda Lawton. Lassila said she keeps the Pumpkin Patch going each year in memory of her father, Phil Lassila, who started the tradition in 1999.

U-pick pumpkins vary in cost depending on the size, type and style of pumpkin. The pumpkin shoot costs $5 for two pumpkins and a chance at $100 if it goes in the barrel. The maze costs $5 for youths 12 and younger to visit, $10 for 13 and older. To schedule an appointment for field trips, call Lassila at 360-461-0940.
