Shanghai, China A Strange Halloween 4K HDR

On October 31, 2025—Halloween day—Shanghai's Yangpu District, Wujiaochang University Road, instantly transformed into a hot check-in spot! As the fashion forefront of Shanghai's "University Road Halloween" hotspot, this place buzzes every year with countless residents flocking here for the revelry, chasing that eerie yet sweet holiday vibe intertwined with ghosts and treats. I couldn't resist joining the crowd, full of anticipation to explore the "Shanghai Halloween 2025" scene's fantastical charm—who knew that upon arrival, the first sensation would be an eerie "calm"?In previous years, this stretch of University Road was a Halloween paradise for merchants' promotions: shop fronts draped in pumpkin lanterns, fake spider webs, bustling with energy to draw families for "trick or treat"! But this year's "Wujiaochang Halloween activities" were unusually subdued—the whole street looked no different from any ordinary day. Only a sea of tourists, yet scarce Halloween decorations—the small square, which should have hosted a lively Halloween market, stood eerily empty, without a trace of haunted houses or costume parties. In their place? Flashes of blue uniforms: swarms of police and plainclothes officers patrolling, their sharp eyes scanning the crowd. If anyone sported a "standout" costume—like a caped vampire or a masked zombie—they'd often be gently "advised to leave," ensuring the site's order remained impeccable.Strolling through this "quiet" Halloween throng, I filmed while reflecting: Is this the other side of Shanghai Halloween? To capture this unique atmosphere, I recorded with my phone all the way (thank goodness it wasn't live streaming, or trouble would have ensued), only to be questioned twice! Live streaming was strictly prohibited on-site, with staff patiently explaining it was for safety reasons. Luckily, they didn't press further, letting me continue seizing these rare moments.Yet, Halloween's warmth never faded—the kids' laughter became the brightest light on University Road! The little ones donned their beloved Halloween outfits, no longer just scary monsters but more adorable princesses, superheroes, or cute animals, joyfully going door-to-door for candy. Though the shops stayed low-key, they flung open their doors, showering treats like a candy rain, sparking waves of cheers. In that instant, you'll realize "Shanghai Halloween trick-or-treating" isn't just Western revelry—it's a sweet ritual of family bonding, conveying bravery, creativity, and sharing in the holiday spirit.If you missed the 2025 Wujiaochang University Road Halloween too, don't be bummed! Next time you're in Shanghai's Yangpu District, why not experience this "low-key luxury" festive vibe firsthand?
