Oh! What a Night it was with a full moon so large and bright you expected to see a witch flying across. On the ground there were plenty of witches, dinosaurs, dead brides, Laughing Jacks, scarecrows, beautiful princesses et.al. Someone looking like Jimmy Buffet was spotted, or, could it have been Gulf Coast Store owner Keith Zahar? The Big Store’s 2023 Halloween GHOST ON THE COAST captained by Buffy provided something for everyone. Many games of chance awaited contestants. A long line of ticket holding winners stood patiently to retrieve their prizes. TRUNK OR TREAT presented artful representations ranging from humorous to lovely to down right scary. Along with such a plethora of displays were treats to satisfy everyone with sweet treats or ornamentations.
There were also Pumpkin Decorating, Trunk or Treat and Costumes Contests. Judges had a hard time choosing the top three from so many unique, clever entrees. Once again Gulf Coast Market aka The Big Store showplaces the very best GHOST ON THE COAST and TRUNK OF TREAT. All agreed with acclamation, OH, WHAT A NIGHT!
