RELATED: NYC’s famed Village Halloween Parade (above) will be back this year, in part thanks to a generous donation from the grand marshal Kelly Ripa. The event nearly went under after being canceled last year due to Frankenstorm Sandy. Organizers reportedly expect 50,000 participants, two million attendees, and a worldwide television audience in the tens of millions.
