ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. – St. Petersburg Fire Rescue is once again trading hoses for haunts as it prepares to host its annual Haunted Fire House on Saturday, October 18, 2025. The community is invited to Fire Station #10, located at 2800 30th Ave N, for a night of safe, family-friendly fun from 5:30 p.m. to 9:30 p.m.
Organized and staffed entirely by local first responders, the popular event transforms the fire station into a festive Halloween destination. The evening promises a wide range of activities for all ages, including music, food and drinks, face painting, bounce houses, crafts, and trick-or-treating.
While the general activities are perfect for the whole family, the main attraction—the Haunted Fire House experience—is specifically recommended for children ages 11 and up due to its spooky nature.
Free Fun with a Fundraising Option
General Admission to the event is free for everyone. However, guests looking to skip the line for the haunted attraction can purchase an optional Fast Pass for $10.
This Fast Pass not only saves time but also supports a significant local cause. All proceeds from Fast Pass sales will benefit St. Petersburg Fire Rescue and the International Association of Firefighters (IAFF) Local 747’s Holiday Toy Drive. This initiative ensures that gifts are provided to children and families who have been impacted by fires or medical emergencies throughout the year.
Parking for the event will be available across the street from Fire Station 10, with the St. Petersburg Police Department on hand to manage traffic and ensure a smooth flow of guests.
The St. Petersburg Fire Rescue encourages all residents to come out, enjoy the frights, and support their efforts to give back to the community.
