  Safe Treats in Siesta Key Village brought out aliens, astronauts and more incredible costumes Saturday evening.    Businesses along Ocean Boulevard in Siesta Key Village participated by giving out candy to children in costume. Not to be outdone by trick-or-treaters, some merchants dressed and decorated their storefronts.
