Throughout the year, I find interesting and spooky places to visit. Now that my favorite time of the year is fast approaching, I’m making up a list of places I’d like to visit in the next seven weeks, and I thought I would share it with all of you. I’ve never been to any of these places during Halloween time or Fall. I’ve only heard about these places from word-of-mouth and the internet. So, I’m hoping to have a lot of fun checking them out.
Sturbridge, MA
Old Sturbridge Village in Massachusetts, is said to be a beautiful town, if you like old places. It is especially so at this time of year. Imagine pairing all of the old world architecture with the changing leaves. Plus, Sturbridge, MA is home to one of the state’s few remaining covered bridges. Also, there is a “Sleepy Hollow Outdoor Experience” that looks interesting.
Chatham, MA
Salem, MA
This last place in Massachusetts, which, I’m sure, you’ve heard of, has been a Halloween gathering place for a few centuries. Yep, I’m talking about Salem. Now, having grown up in Massachusetts, I’ve been to Salem a few times, but never for the October festivities. The entire month of October is called “Haunted Happenings”, which simply means, there’s lots of stuff going on. The calendar is filled with different supernatural related events, like tarot card readings, graveyard ghosts stories and tours, and, let’s not forget, the infamous Salem Witch Museum. Be sure to go early in the month, though, I hear the city becomes a true madhouse the closer you get to Halloween. From what I hear, if you do go, go in costume. You’ll be the strange one, if you don’t.
Albany, NH
Chesterfield, NH
Ludlow, VT
Stowe, VT
Bar Harbor, ME
That’s all for now. This is, by no means, a complete list, but going to see eight different and, potentially, far away places will be difficult enough. I’m not sure of the exact dates I’ll be going to these places, but I hope to see some of you there. I’ll also post about these places and let you know how good they are. If you’ve been to any of these places before, feel free to comment and tell us about your experience. Have a spooky time!
