It's been 11 years since Halloween fell on a Saturday night. It's been 19 years since a full moon appeared in the Halloween sky. It's been 102 years since a global pandemic upended the usual routine of Halloween revelers. Call it a spooky trifecta...call it unreal...call it typical for #2020...whatever you call it, Halloween 2020 will be like no All Hallow's Eve we've experienced before. Ready to put on your scariest mask and venture out for a fun evening? We have a roundup of Halloween 2020 events in Birmingham to help you decide where to go and what to do.
