Here are five things to do this weekend, from the big Oak Lawn Halloween Block Party to other ways to scare up some fun.
Tonight – November 1
Lady Day at Emerson’s Bar & Grill
What: If you haven’t yet caught Denise Lee as Billie Holiday, it’s time to get out the credit card and pick your seats.

Chefs for Farmers
What: Three days of culinary events, capping off with an outdoor tasting on Sunday that’s totally casual. (Because we’re tired of wearing our tux everywhere.)

Saturday
Day of the Dead Denton
What: This family-friendly free festival up north has a Dia de lose Muertos theme, including coffin races. It’s a great way to get into the spirt of things before the Dallas debauchery later that night.
