I love taking my kids trick-or-treating on Halloween, so I've not included any events that take place that evening. However, the Arlington Church on Rush Creek will have their Shreek event that night from 6-8:30p. South Oaks Baptist Church on 287 will also have bounce houses and hayrides Halloween night if you want somewhere fun to be! If you are like me and live in Arlington, I highly recommend trick-or-treating on Waggoner St. in Pantego (it's near Pantego Christian). The neighborhood goes all out and the street is closed to traffic. We've gone the past two years and love it! (I'll be the one massively pregnant waddling around in yoga pants and a black shirt with a pumpkin face on my enormous belly!)
