Annual Wicked Manors Halloween street party provides plenty of safe, ghoulish fun

WILTON MANORS, Fla. – A lot of work went into the preparation for Wicked Manors, one of the biggest Halloween street parties in South Florida — and possibly the country.

“This is for everyone,” said Pride Center CEO Roberto Boo. “Last year we had 30 to 35,000 people.”

A similar crowd came out for the 10th anniversary of the mostly nighttime party, which all started with the children’s costume contests.

The party got underway late Tuesday afternoon and went well into the evening, with costumes spanning from Power Rangers to Mary Poppins to the Men In Black to Ken and Barbie.

Those attending were asked to be patient when arriving, as there was plenty of security to keep everyone safe.

“For over six months we’ve been planning for this event,” said Wilton Manors police Chief Gary Blocker.
