Harvest Festival Join Pierce College in welcoming back Spookley the Square Pumpkin and his hay-stuffed handler Jack the Scarecrow in the pair’s live stage show at the college’s Woodland Hills campus, newly gussied up in its autumnal finest for the annual Halloween Harvest Festival. This year’s festival also boasts a pick-your-pumpkin patch, hayrides, a corn maze, a haunted house and a haunted trail. Scaredy-cats and fear junkies alike should be advised that, after dark, the festival becomes the FrightFair Scream Park, a souped-up and altogether more terrifying version of itself. Pierce College, 20800 Victory Blvd., Woodland Hills. 10 a.m.-10 p.m. Sun.-Thurs.; 10 a.m.-midnight Fri.-Sat. https://www.halloweenharvestfestival.com.
