Top Halloween Celebrations in the Nation

Halloween is almost here and many cities are already well-prepared for their annual festivities. While you can find spooky celebrations in just about every town in America, some places are well-known for going above and beyond the typical decorations. Here are some travel tips on finding the top Halloween celebrations in the U.S.

Salem
The infamous site of the Salem witch trials of the 1600s, this small New England town also boasts one of the wickedest All Hallow's Eve celebrations around - the Festival of the Dead. Salem is also just 30 minutes outside of Boston, so if you have the time, feel free to pop over to the bustling city afterwards.

New Orleans
It's no surprise that residents of this city know how to party on Halloween. Look for vampire-themed festivities such as a tour of sites from Anne Rice's Vampire Chronicles, citywide costume parties and the general debauchery for which the Big Easy is known.

New York City
The Greenwich Village Halloween Parade draws hundreds of thousands of costumed New Yorkers into the streets every year, making it one of the largest holiday parties in the nation, according to HotelsByCity.net. The parade includes various performers and artists all contributing to the spooky madness unleashed on the streets of Manhattan. Because traffic will be heavy during this parade, parking your vehicle outside of the city and using public transportation may be a good idea!
