SANTA BARBARA, Calif. - With stacked brooms off to the side, the annual witches lunch filled many tables at Anderson's restaurant and bakery on Thursday in downtown Santa Barbara.

Artist Patricia Chidlaw said she and some friends began this years ago and the word gets out every year.

This lunch had 60 witches attending, the largest group so far.

Chidlaw said some of the costumes were the best she had ever seen, especially the hats.

There was a special menu created by Andersons for those attending. The bakery also had a full selection of custom-made Halloween cookies.
