Beggar Night Times and Pumpkin Patches in Central Ohio

October means spending time at pumpkin patches collecting the perfect gourd for carving and preparing costumes for the all important Beggar's Night run. Central Ohio does Beggar's Night differently than other areas with the dates moving up and down the calendar depending on the day. This year - fortunately - Beggar's Night for the city of Columbus and surrounding suburbs fall on the actual day of Halloween *exception - Groveport, Ohio.

Be sure to check out our big Halloween in Columbus section for all the creepy news and events.
