Zoothing Boo

Zooming Boo is the Akron Zoo's Halloween-themed after-dark event where families explore the grounds in a festive, spooky atmosphere. Kids and adults enjoy decorated pathways, costumed characters, trick-or-treating stations, and animal encounters—all designed to be fun rather than frightening. It's a great way to experience the zoo in a seasonal celebration without the intensity of a typical haunted house, making it perfect for families with younger children who want Halloween excitement in a safe, animal-focused setting.
