Are you looking for a trip that’s a little out of the ordinary? If you’re wanting a spooky Halloween adventure, there are three US cities that can provide the thrills and chills you’re seeking. Whether you’re fascinated by witches, ghosts, or historic horrors, these destinations can give you that eerie energy you’re looking for:
Salem, Massachusetts
You’ve probably heard about Salem, Massachusetts, the location of the 1692 Witch Trials, wherein hundreds of people were accused of witchcraft. There is a lot to do in Salem, especially for history buffs. You can take a trip to several different museums, such as the Salem Witch Museum, and learn more about the city’s past and the fates of those accused of witchcraft. If you’re interested in scares, you can join a walking tour and learn about paranormal activity, ghostly sightings, and unexplained occurrences.
New Orleans, Louisiana
I went on a great girls’ trip to Louisiana some years ago and enjoyed the cemetery and ghost tours; I can only imagine how fun they’d be during Halloween. Hear stories of vampires, hauntings, and voodoo and afterwards, get a tarot reading from one of the many tarot card readers in the city. And (this isn’t scary) but make sure you grab a beignet while you’re there!
Savannah, Georgia
If you’re looking for haunts, Savannah should be high on your list. Savannah is considered the most haunted city in America. Like the other cities on this list, there are ghost tours available…in this case, there’s a ghost trolley tour to learn more about Savannah’s most haunted areas. There are also other paranormal tours available or you can take a walk through the Bonaventure Cemetery, which was featured in the 90’s movie, Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil.
This Halloween, pack your bags, grab your bravest travel buddy, and get ready for a spooky trip. Whether you choose to visit Salem, New Orleans, or Savannah, each city will offer you a memorable adventure.
