It's been fun! Check out the Halloween Guide for anything else, but here's everything going on the rest of the week for Halloween.

Friday, October 31, 2025

West Hollywood loves Halloween, and the City of West Hollywood is thrilled that Halloween is back with Halloween Carnaval 2025! The City’s incomparable Halloween Carnaval is one of the most unique Halloween gatherings in the world.
 

Halloween Carnaval is free to attend and will take place on Friday, October 31, 2025 on a one-mile stretch of Santa Monica Boulevard between N. Doheny Drive and N. La Cienega Boulevard.

Staged on Santa Monica Boulevard/Historic Route 66, Halloween Carnaval will feature a stage at the intersection of Santa Monica Boulevard and N. San Vicente Boulevard with a live DJ set, food trucks and thousands of wildly dressed Halloween revelers for a one-of-a-kind experience.

There will also be Halloween celebrations at businesses, bars, restaurants and entertainment venues throughout the City!

The City invites Halloween Carnaval-goers to get into the spirit and show off costumes by uploading photos to social media sites with the hashtag #wehohalloween.

 The American Cinematheque welcomes Guillermo del Toro in-person for a special screening of his newest film, FRANKENSTEIN in 35mm, continuing the filmmaker’s cinematic exploration of the boundaries between good and evil, human and inhuman, gods and monsters. Starring Oscar Isaac, Jacob Elordi and Mia Goth, del Toro’s adaptation builds on his oeuvre of horrifying, otherworldly and exhilarating stories of outsiders.

Leading up to FRANKENSTEIN, we’ll ring in Halloween with a week-long program of horror classics curated by del Toro himself. Join us at the Los Feliz 3 for a selection of frightening tales of all manner of monsters: ghosts, grudges, giant mollusks and a virus that spreads through the English language.

Series also includes: KING KONG, THE MONSTER THAT CHALLENGED THE WORLD, THE UNINVITED, BRIDE OF FRANKENSTEIN, SEE NO EVIL and PONTYPOOL

SAW The Musical hilariously captures the events of the first movie parodying the Saw that started it all following from where Lawrence Gordon and Adam Stanheight find each other for the first time in the bathroom trap. Will they follow ''the rules'' as they discover each other's secrets? Will they escape the game in time and saw right through? A love story with fluidity (and lots more fluids), 'SAW The Musical: The Unauthorized Parody of Saw' is Little Shop of Horrors meets Avenue Q, pushing the boundary on sexuality and how to love.
