For 100 years, the Anaheim Halloween Parade has put residents in the spirit.
The parade marched through downtown on Saturday night marking its centennial year, with crowds cheering and waiving from where they lined the route. Community groups and dignitaries, local schools and law enforcement all participated.
Many of the floats are throwbacks to earlier entries, recreated by volunteers who have helped in the last several years return the parade to showcase event.
The parade Saturday followed the annual Fall Festival on Center Street Promenade, which celebrated its 100th anniversary last year.
