Things are already getting wild on Capitol Hill — and it’s not even Hilloween, yet! Wednesday night, Seattle Fire and police were called to a tony neighborhood along north Broadway after a strange attack that left a 30-year-old woman with an animal bite to the hand. Medics treated the injury but couldn’t confirm the victim’s account of a wild raccoon attack after the animal fled the scene. It’s still out there, somewhere.

Happy Hilloween.

There’s a full weekend of Halloween events including Saturday’s Hilloween carnival and more. We’ve also posted an updated trick-or-treat map.

    2) The Ben Lomond apartments
    “Although she saw everything else, trees, the ground, bushes…everything where he was standing was illuminated but she he’d vanished. When she covered the light, there he was again.” More…
