For a spooky good time, get ready for something new this year. It's the “Haunted Trails,” sponsored by the TAMUT cross-country teams. The Haunted Trails are free of charge and everyone can enjoy it because there are two trails; the short trail for the kids that's a little spooky and then there is the longer trail that is spookier for the older kids.

Celeste McNiel the A&M-Texarkana Director of Student Life said in a press release;

“We are so excited to bring Trunk or Treat back to our campus again. It’s been a few years since we have been able to host the event and our students have been very vocal about their desire to bring it back. This has been a fun, wonderful community event for us in the past and we are excited to invite the community back to campus for some Halloween fun."

So get ready for a fun time and it's free. You can find out more information at the Texas A&M Texarkana Facebook page.

LOOK: How Halloween has changed in the past 100 years

Stacker compiled a list of ways that Halloween has changed over the last 100 years, from how we celebrate it on the day to the costumes we wear trick-or-treating. We’ve included events, inventions, and trends that changed the ways that Halloween was celebrated over time. Many of these traditions were phased out over time. But just like fake blood in a carpet, every bit of Halloween’s history left an impression we can see traces of today.
