BULLHEAD CITY – Last Saturday brought out the 9th Annual Howl-O Ween Trunk or Treat event at Swanty’s Dodge Jeep Ram dealership in Bullhead City. A hundred or more kids were on hand for the annual Halloween event that offered them bounce houses, free hot dogs, hamburgers and ice cream as well as a tour of the famous Swanty’s Haunted House located inside the Swanty’s service bay which  boasted massive 18-foot-tall ghouls, skeletons and  even a skeleton band rocking out while the parking lot was full of local vendors and participants all handing out candy, coupons and other prizes to the kids on hand all dressed up in their finest Halloween apparel. 

The annual event offers kids and parents the opportunity to get out and celebrate the fall holiday in a safe and friendly environment that offers more than just walking the neighborhood knocking on doors which has more or less become a thing of the past. There are many such events hosted annually to offer such safe environments to kids wishing to celebrate the holiday and parents who want such safe alternatives to the old ways of celebrating Halloween and Swanty’s has been offering this celebration for nine years and counting now.
