Haunted House of Spirits
- Volkov Manor | all season
If you made a Venn diagram showing New Yorkers who love a drink, those that love spooky festivities, and theater devotees you'd find Haunted House of Spirits where all three intersect.

Black Lagoon Pop Up Bar

This multi-city pop-up bar series has taken over Brooklyn's Our Wicked Lady this October, providing a Halloween themed bar experience for Halloween-lovers all month long.
New York City's Village Halloween Parade
- Starting at Canal St. & 6th Ave | October 31 at 7pm
The 49th annual Village Halloween Parade is taking place on October 31, starting at Canal Street and flowing up 6th Avenue to 15th Street. A New York tradition and a classic, for those who like to make Halloween a whole event there will never be a bigger party than a Halloween parade.
Greenwood Cemetery's Nightfall: Eternal Returns
- Greenwood Cemetery | October 20th & 21st
The 478 acre Greenwood Cemetery in Brooklyn provides all sorts of reasons to stop by—other than to honor the dead, of course—including Athena LaTocha’s large-scale art installation "The Remains of Winter." But Nightfall: Eternal Returns is a special event returning after a two-year absence. It stretches throughout the cemetery and — using music and entertainment — focuses on the line between life and death, the worlds between, and making peace with the life cycle we are all in. Bring a flashlight and enjoy.
Madhouse on Mulberry
- Mulberry Street | all season
You gotta love being terrified for Madhouse on Mulberry to be the perfect Halloween themed hang for you and your friend group. But if you can handle a little fun that also freaks you out, this is for you.
Queens County Farm Museum Pumpkin Patch
- Queens | all season
One way that New Yorkers aren't that dissimilar to the rest of the United States: we all love a good pumpkin patch, and Queens County Farm Museum has us all covered. If you're willing to make a little trek, or if you're lucky enough to be a neighbor, stop in and check out the pumpkins. Great spot for kids or cute fall themed dates but please take note that it closes promptly at 4:30 every day.
Blood Manor
- Blood Manor | all season
This is honestly a real terror fest and you won't catch me dead here because I get scared too easily. But those who have a stronger stomach should check out Blood Manor, which is a gigantic terrifying horror performance you're actively a part of.
