The guide also maps out other standout Halloween displays across Long Island, with tips on when to visit, where to park, and how to match each stop to your family's scare tolerance.
• High school roundup: Girls volleyball, boys and girls soccer and field hockey (newsday.com) — Wantagh High School's girls soccer team edged Floral Park 1-0, with goalkeeper Lena Tuniewicz making five key saves to secure the shutout.

• NYPD Officer Who Tackled Gracie Mansion Bomb Suspect Honored by PBA (internewscast.com) — An NYPD officer was honored for rescuing two people from a fiery rollover crash at a major Wantagh intersection back in February, acting while off duty and undergoing cancer treatment.
