In addition to trick-or-treat candy stops around the ballpark, carnival games and a pumpkin patch “photo BOOth,” the festivities feature a costume contest, with prizes for the top three contestants. "The Nightmare Before Christmas" will also be played on the video board for families to enjoy.

“H-E-B is proud to be the presenting sponsor of Halloween with the Hooks,” said Soila Whitaker, H-E-B’s Sr. Marketing and Merchandising Manager. “Supporting our communities is at the heart of everything we do at H-E-B, and we’re thrilled to help bring this fun and festive event to Corpus Christi. From the costume contest to the trick-or-treating, it’s a wonderful way for families to come together and celebrate in a safe, welcoming environment.”

“Halloween with the Hooks has become a fall tradition in Corpus Christi, and we want to thank H-E-B for enabling us to host this event since 2014,” Hooks Vice President of Business Development Maggie Freeborn said. “We are once again expecting thousands of kiddos and their families to join us for a night of fun at the ballpark. Our business community has been amazing with its support each year. Those hoping for a trick-or-treat table, better act quickly!”
