For an area already known for its extravagance, the Village pulls out all the stops for its annual Halloween parade.
With a devilish reputation for flair, the parade draws thousands to 6th avenue.
The annual event attracts an older crowd of trick-or-treaters, who enjoy music, mayhem and merriment.
And with all the ghouls, goblins and vampires that showed up tonight--New York may become the city that never sleeps....until after dawn.
