Saturday, October 24, 2026 · 4:00 – 7:30 PM · La Cañada ElementaryGet ready for one of LCE's favorite traditions! The 38th Annual Halloween Haunt & Silent Auction returns October 24, bringing our entire community together for an afternoon — and now evening! — of games, inflatables, our Haunted Maze, Trunk or Treat, Boo Bites, specialty experiences, treats, prizes, our Silent Auction, and plenty of Halloween fun.
Haunt is one of our signature PTA fundraisers, but just as importantly, it's one of those special LCE traditions our kids look forward to year after year.

You may have noticed something different about this year's Haunt: we've moved it a little later in the day!
We know fall weekends are packed with sports, activities, celebrations, and everything else our families are juggling, so the later start gives everyone a little more room to make it to Haunt.
And there's another reason we're excited to go later this year… Haunt is getting its GLOW on!
As the sun goes down, new glow-in-the-dark elements will come to life and bring a whole new feel to Boo Bash. And we still have some exciting surprises and Haunt reveals to come!
What's coming to Boo Bash?
Check out this year's Boo Bash lineup — wristband play, activity tickets, specialty experiences, Boo Bites, and the Early Bird bundle.
Haunt funds more than half of the PTA's year.
Proceeds from the Halloween Haunt make up more than half of the LCE PTA's annual operating budget, helping fund the programs, experiences, and support our students and teachers enjoy throughout the year.
And there are so many ways to help make Haunt a success.
Help bring Haunt to life
Sponsor or underwrite the HauntThe Halloween Haunt is one of LCE's biggest traditions — and it takes the support of our community to make the magic happen! Sponsorship and underwriting opportunities give LCE families, local businesses, and community partners a meaningful way to support the event while receiving recognition for their generosity.
Sponsor Haunt at one of our recognition levels, or underwrite a specific part of Boo Bash — from inflatables and carnival games to food, entertainment, and special experiences. Every sponsorship helps offset event costs and allows Haunt proceeds to go even further in supporting LCE PTA programs throughout the year.
