Williamsburg Halloween Watch: Three Ghosts

October 20, 2010 ·
Filed under: 11211, Williamsburg, Williamsburg Brooklyn

Is it just me or is there less Halloween spirit than usual in north Brooklyn? Some of my favorite haunts (pun completely intended) have yet to put any decorations at all. Perhaps they are simply running behind? I can only hope so. In any case, I was happy to see these three goodfellas back at in on Metropolitan Avenue yesterday!
