In photos: Lovable characters prowl South Portland neighborhood on Halloween

For the third year, pirates and princesses, dinosaurs and unicorns, witches and werewolves paraded through a few South Portland streets between Broadway and Highland, across from Mill Village. In 2020, the first year of the pandemic, Megan Honeycomb-McDonald and Elliott Pitts wanted kids in their neighborhood to have a Halloween. They chose an outdoor Halloween parade that would give everyone a chance to see each other, while keeping a safe distance. It was informal, and fun and continues in a world that has since opened up. Meet a few of the kids, big and small, from the neighborhood. They stopped by for a photo, in a pop-up studio in my driveway. Photos by Press Herald Photo Editor Michele McDonald
