"It was a cold and windy night." That's how a lot of scary stories begin. But in Ada on Monday night there were lots of ghouls and goblins seen about the downtown on a "pleasant and beautiful night."

The good weather brought out a throng of Halloweeners, who registered in the parking lot behind the city building, marched to the depot, and heard the results of the costume contest.

There were 187 contest participants, about 350 to 400 people (and two dogs) altogether at the event.
