Trade the candy haul for a grown-up treat. BC casinos have plenty of dining options for casual date nights, large group events like hosting a Halloween party or any size gathering in between. From elevated dining and steakhouses to pub-style comfort food and quick bites, there's a spot for everyone’s taste.

Encore Rewards members get discounts on restaurants and lounges, so be sure to take look at the perks you might have earned or sign up if you’re not already a member.

Hit the gaming floor

After dinner, head to the floor to find your favourite table games and more. Stay on theme with a few of the Halloween favourites here.

Plus, check out the live entertainment options at the BC casino nearest you. Depending on the location, you might find live music or Bingo this Halloween.

Remember to take a look at the latest casino promotions, including exclusive perks for Encore Rewards members.

Make a weekend out of it

Since Halloween falls on a weekend this year, it’s the perfect opportunity to turn a night out into a full mini getaway with a casino hotel stay that lets you enjoy the fall season a little longer.

Spend the afternoon on a nearby trail, park or waterfront, then head to a casino for dinner and a night out once it gets dark. Encore Rewards members can also get a discount in their stay. 

Casino Games to Play This Halloween

The Mo’ Mummy Series 

Mummies are a staple for Halloween and believe it or not, on the casino floor, too. The Mo’ Mummy series takes you into a world of Egyptian tombs, pharaohs and buried treasure. From Mighty Pyramid to Valley of the Riches, Sunlight Riches and Midnight Treasures, each game puts its own spin on adventure through the sands of ancient Egypt. 

Each has a Cash Collect feature. Collect enough gems to expand the bonus zone, and each new gem collected adds spins. You can also win Free Games, which award six free spins and score a random jackpot with five prize tiers.

Karma Kat and Kismet Kat 

If your group prefers witchy and spellbinding to classic horror, try these two. They're built around a glowing magic wheel and a pair of mystical cats. Before the wheel spins, you can pick bonuses to boost the values. Plus, there’s a Match 3 pick bonus feature.

Frankenstein and Frankenstein Returns 

These ones are a colourful twist on the classic monster tale and just like the monster himself, hard to miss when you’re out on the casino floor. Along with its striking visuals, its haunting musical score makes it the perfect addition to any Halloween night out. Play the original or experience the Frankenstein Returns sequel, where multi-coloured monster symbols award between two and five prizes at once. Keep an eye out for the “It's Alive!” bonus that triggers free respins.
