Halloween

A Halloween-themed promotional flyer from the Town of Spencer, North Carolina. At the top is the Spencer logo and the slogan “Rowan’s Original Gateway.” Centered above the title are three white cartoon ghosts wearing Halloween hats and carrying trick-or-treat buckets, surrounded by bats, stars, and broomsticks. The background features a large orange and yellow sunset shape on a purple and pink textured backdrop. Large multicolored text in the center reads “TRUNK OR TREAT.” Curved text on the left states “5:30 PM to 7:30 PM,” and curved text on the right states “Thursday October 29 Park Plaza.” Near the bottom, yellow text lists event attractions: “Treats,” “Car Decorations,” and “Costumes.” The flyer concludes with registration information for vehicle participants: “To learn more & register your vehicle as a ‘trunk,’ visit: SpencerNC.gov/Halloween.”
