Washington County, WI – WashingtonCountyInsider.com has asked local advertisers to send in their employee, pet, and/or children’s Halloween costume pictures to showcase.
Thanks to Murphy & Prachthauser for their not-too-scary submissions. Folks will just have to ask someone on the M&P team if they want to know who is in the coveted “Rex” dinosaur costume. Rex tried to tell a joke, but it was a little too ‘pre-hysterical’ for us. One can sense a theme going on according to the pics below.

The American Red Cross has ten tips parents can follow to help keep their kids safe while enjoying the Halloween festivities.
- Trick-or-treaters need to see and be seen. …
- Use flame-resistant costumes.
- Make sure adults know where the kids are going. …
- Be cautious around animals, especially dogs.
- Walk, don’t run.
