PUEBLO, Colo. (KRDO) – Pueblo is giving its best effort to make Halloween a bi-annual event. “Summerween” returns Saturday, this time inside the Pueblo Mall.
“With everything going on, all the rising costs of everything, I think it’s just something nice to do for the community, have a free event where people can just come and enjoy, hopefully forget about all that stuff outside, and just come in, enjoy this event, play some cornhole and enjoy the movies, too,” organizer and “Jed’s Nightmare” owner Jared Perea said.
Hosted by the “Funhouse Haunted House” and Jed’s Nightmare, the free event includes all of Halloween’s favorite traditions, with trick-or-treating and your best costume encouraged. Below is a full list of activities.

They will also have almost 50 vendors selling food, knick-knacks and a wide range of hand-made items.
