Many people consider Halloween a beloved holiday and there are plenty of things to do and throughout October. Here are some fun attractions to take your kids to on Halloween.
Halloween Haunted Attractions
Some of the most popular Halloween attractions are haunted attractions and they come in many forms. You may find a haunted house, a haunted hayride, a haunted corn maze and many more. Some of these attractions may only have one haunted feature while others may boast several with varying themes. Almost all of them also offer refreshments, photo spots and rest areas. You can also look for ones that are appropriate for all ages.
Ghost Tours
Ghost tours are typically available year-round, but they can be especially fun during the Halloween season. Taking your kids on a ghost tour can be particularly entertaining for those who enjoy history, folklore, scary stories and learning more about the place they live or are visiting. Your guide will lead you around a designated area, typically a town or city neighborhood but sometimes a park or cemetery, and tell you ghost stories that relate to the place’s history.
Fall Festivals
A fall festival is an excellent choice for kids who don’t like anything too scary. Most fall festivals offer many activities and attractions, so there should be something for everyone in the family to enjoy when you visit one. There will always be refreshments and rest areas. You can often find kid-friendly hayrides, corn mazes and other activities such as arts and crafts or carnival games. Fall festivals also usually have shopping areas where you can purchase souvenirs, fall produce and Halloween treats.
Remember to get your kids involved in choosing and planning Halloween activities and trips. Every child is different, so it’s a good idea to choose an attraction based on your child’s interests.
