Back in 2010, a new event took place in downtown Wichita Falls called the Zombie Crawl. It quickly exploded in popularity throughout the years and at one point was attracting thousands to downtown Wichita Falls for the event. I'm not sure why the Zombie Crawl went away, it's final year was before 2020 so we can't blame that. Well a similar style event is coming to Wichita Falls on October 28, 2023.

Wichita Falls Candyland 2022

Located on Southwest Parkway in Wichita Falls, Texas, east of Memorial Stadium, lies Candyland Christmas! A local homeowner goes ALL OUT on their holiday lights display by recreating the classic boardgame Candyland but with a festive twist. It looks like the homeowner started decorating in early November. We're not sure when the homeowner is planning on flipping the switch, but with the holidays right around the corner, they'll probably be lighting it up soon!
