Though October 31, 2023 saw a small increase in calls for service in Prince George over the 2022 total, it was still lower than the five-year average, but much lower than the 154 calls received in 2021. The average calls for service on Halloween is 140.

PJXM News decorated its front entrance and had an increase of 15 more trick or treaters in 2023 compared to 2022 for a total of 38! For the area that is outstanding! Decorations make a big difference as parents were driving around the city looking for decorated homes to bring a vehicle full of young kids and teens to. – PJXM News Photo.

“The ghosts and ghouls roaming about on Halloween were not much scarier than they have been any other year,” states Cpl. Jennifer Cooper Media Relations Officer for the Prince George RCMP. “Being a mid-week event this year, it likely had people returning home a littler earlier and partying more responsibly than when Halloween is on a weekend.”

The bulk of the calls to RCMP were reports of suspicious events people were witnessing (nine) and reports of mischief (five).

Prince George RCMP hopes everyone had a fun and safe Halloween and looks forward to the festivities in 2024.
