Colton Hughes, 1 year old, was snuggly warm and cute as a button in his Cowardly Lion costume which ironically earned him "scariest" in the infant to 3 year old contest during Tuesday's return of Trick or Treating on the Hayesville town square. His dad, Christ Hughes escorted him to the judges' podium. After several years hiatus, the square was once again filled with ghosts, goblins, Barbies and even Taylor Swift and Kansas City Chiefs boyfriend, Travis Kelce in costumes worn by Avery Morgan and Kanyon Lockaby. Many Businesses who handed out candy, along with parents, expressed thanks to Sonja Silvers and crew for spearheading the move to bring trick or treating back to town.
