Three Essential Halloween Activities in New England for 2011

Article and photo by Eric H.


Celebrate Halloween in Salem, Mass. - What better
place to celebrate Halloween than the place best known for the Salem Witch trials? The witch culture thrives in Salem to this very day with many witch-related travel attractions. Halloween turns into a month long celebration, including a haunted harbor cruise, "tales and Tombstones" trolley tour, theater productions, museum exhibitions, parades, "trick or treat" with the mayor, a children's day, motorcycle run, and concerts  We recommend visiting the Haunted Happenings web site for specific Salem Halloween 2011 event dates and times.

Keene N.H.,  Pumpkin Festival -- This long-running, spectacular pumpkin event will be held on October 22, 2011, noon-8:29 pm. (yes, that's right 8:29 p.m.), in beautiful downtown Keene (a Currier and Ives-type town if there ever was one). Thousands of votive candles will illuminate the night — and, of course, pumpkins — while events include the Pumpkin Festival Children’s Costume Parade, pumpkin bowling, a food court and craft fair. Visit the Keene Pumpkin Festival 2011 Web Site for more information.

SpookyWorld --The 20th anniversary of SpookyWorld (Nightmare New England) will take place on select days in October at 454 Charles Bancroft Highway in Litchfield, N.H..  Featured attractions include a "Monster Midway," and six rather scary-sounding attractions. Check out the SpookWorld Web Site for more information.
