Halloween revelers of all ages took to the streets of downtown Ballard Oct. 31 for the annual trick-or-treating event.

Participating businesses handed out candy, a photo booth was set up outside the old Ballard Camera shop and buskers entertained the hundreds of people, many in costume, who packed the sidewalks.

Popular characters, such as Spiderman and Harry Potter, lurked around every corner, but there were also some nifty homemade robots, a giant Peep and a topical tribute to swine flu.
