The entrance to the White House was decorated with pumpkins, ivy and a giant fake moon for the occasion, while a soldier performed Halloween classics.
Midway, Trump stopped to watch a low-level flyby of his Qatari Air Force One jet.
After about an hour, and after Trump danced lightly to a rendition of the “Ghostbusters” theme song, the couple went back inside.
