The Witches Ride of Ocean Springs is a whimsical “flight” full of costumed witches and wizards handing out tricks and treats to those lining the streets of beautiful, historic downtown Ocean Springs.

We were established in 2018, and we are a non-profit 501(c)(3), whose mission is to raise funds for local animal welfare agencies through special themed events in Ocean Springs, MS throughout the fall season. We want to help better the lives of local animals in need!

In 2024 we raised over $28,000 and those proceeds were split between 5 recipients!

Since 2018, we’ve proudly donated over $91,000 to local animal welfare agencies! Past recipients include: Jackson County Animal Shelter, Feral Feline Coalition, Humane Society of South Mississippi, Tired Dog Rescue and SNIP!
