Halloween has ancient roots going back to the Celtic festival of Samhain, when people believed the boundary between the living and the spirit world was thinnest. It evolved into the modern holiday we know, with costumes, trick-or-treating, and playful scares. At Richmond, Halloween is a highlight—full of creativity, costumes, and sweet fun. It’s a time for residents to express themselves, enjoy some spooky excitement, and share in the joy of being part of a welcoming, festive community.
