Witches Night Out Draws Thousands to Village at Meridian

Despite high temperatures that we're experiencing in the Treasure Valley this late into the year, fall is certainly here. Call it fall or call it spooky season, thousands of witches gathered at The Village at Meridian on Thursday night--right on time!

Every year, 'Witches Night Out' takes over the streets and plazas of The Village. The many stores and shops of The Village gather for fun in the streets, along with tons of local businesses, vendors, bands, Dj's and entertainers!

In Fountain Square, there's an auction, a costume contest, VIP tabling and more.

Of course, the event is totally brought together by the thousands that enthusiastically dress as witches.

The most magical part of it all? ALL proceeds from the event go to Faces of Hope, an amazing local nonprofit.

There's nothing 'witchy' about that!

According to Faces of Hope, via the Witches Night Out event page: 

It's estimated that 1 in 3 women and 1 in 4 men will experience domestic abuse, sexual assault, or stalking in their lifetime. Faces of Hope is a non-profit provides a safety net of crisis services to men, women, and children experiencing domestic violence, sexual assault, child abuse, elder abuse, stalking, or human trafficking in our community. All proceeds from Witches Night Out go to Faces of Hope right here in the Treasure Valley.

The event both gathered thousands and raised thousands for the great work of Faces of Hope, a difference that will be felt throughout the year.
