REHOBOTH BEACH, Del.- Ghosts, witches and goblins are taking over Rehoboth Avenue in Rehoboth Beach as businesses get into the Halloween spirit. And on Saturday morning, the much anticipated Sea Witch Parade will make its way down city streets.
The 30th annual Sea Witch Festival got underway Friday and continues through Sunday. This year's highly anticipated parade is expecting more than 180,000 people.
"Just watching little kids and the excitement and watching all the floats all get set up and all the cars. It's just such an excitement that comes in around town," said Sea Witch board member Rachel Webster.
This year's fun, fright, and festivities come with a lot of the same events people know and love. But visitors can expect a lot of new additions to this old festival.

"On Friday we added entertainment on the bandstand. We added something called Bubbles Blew and Puppies Too. Our Toy and Kite Company will be there with toys and bubbles for the kids. The Humane Society is coming in with adoptable dogs," says Rehoboth Beach-Dewey Beach Chamber of Commerce President Carol Everhart.
The parade will stream live on WRDE Coast TV at 10:30 a.m. Saturday. Additionally, on-air personalities from WRDE, WBOC TV 16 and Telemundo Delmarva will be walking in the parade and greeting the crowd.
