The Magic of Halloween: A Look Back at Mount Dora's Spooky Season
As we approach mid-April, many Mount Dora residents are already looking forward to the next holiday season. While Halloween 2025 may seem a distant memory, the spirit of community and creativity that defined last year's festivities still resonates. From the decorated storefronts along Donnelly Street to the bustling trick-or-treaters in the picturesque historic district, Mount Dora once again proved its knack for celebrating.
Local businesses, including those in the Mount Dora Village Market, reported a significant increase in foot traffic, with many offering special Halloween-themed treats and decorations. Families across the city, from the Lakes of Mount Dora to the neighborhoods near Lincoln Avenue, participated enthusiastically, transforming their homes into ghoulish delights and welcoming costumed children with open arms.
The annual Halloween event hosted by the Mount Dora Parks and Recreation Department at Donnelly Park, overlooking Lake Dora, was a particular highlight, drawing hundreds of families for games, costume contests, and safe trick-or-treating. While details for Halloween 2026 are still being planned, last year's success sets a high bar for community engagement and festive fun.
