]]>York Ghost Tour
The city of York is ancient (you can explore Roman ruins beneath the pavements of the city), and everyone knows that the older a place is, the spookier it feels. Book onto one of the city’s many ghost tours (ideally just as it’s getting dark), and an expert local will guide you through the narrow, twisting streets, telling you all of the most ghastly tales linked with the city sites. Head to one of the many old-fashioned pubs after, for a nerve-settling drink beside a roaring fire.
Tower of London
Many famous faces have been held prisoner in this ancient site, and exploring it you can really get a sense of the history of this prison. Guided tours will provide you with all of the grisly details, and kids and adults alike will enjoy the interactive elements of exhibits.
Lindisfarne, Northumberland
Stunning by day, as night closes in this small island with the ruins of a 9th-century monastery starts to feel particularly lonely and isolated. This was the place where Vikings first attacked England, murdering the monks and sacking their monastery before returning to the sea. Windswept and surrounded by the sea, take the chance to stay in one of the island’s hotels to get a true taste of island life.
The UK is a country riddled with ghost tales and spectral hauntings, so make the most of spooky season and check out some of its most ghoulish locations.

The house is still furnished as it was when the Corwins lived there. The visit is self-guided.
The McIntire District
This district is known for its concentration of 18th and 19th-century homes, many of which were built by Salem-born woodcarver and architect Samuel McIntire. Overall, the McIntire District includes examples of building styles from 1640 to 1940, making it a great spot for those interested in architecture.

Halloween in Disney World is a magical experience. Everybody dresses up in costumes and enjoy incredible tricks and treats. This year, it will look different, and here’s how.
No “Mickey’s Not-So-Scary” Halloween Party
We’re sad about it but we understand that organizing a party is simply not safe right now. The party typically features a parade, fireworks, specialty foods and drinks, and of course, plenty of costumed characters. This year, it has been canceled due to COVID-19.
Merchandise
You’ll still be able to find Halloween-themed souvenirs like spirit jerseys, trick-or-treat buckets, Minnie witch hats, candy ears, and many more.
Main Street Decor
Main Street U.S.A. will still get Halloween decoration that you can enjoy on your way to Cinderella Castle.
#MagicKingdom #WaltDisneyWorld (

]]>Early Origins
There are lots of conflicting ideas about how the All Hallow’s Eve tradition started. Many believe that it began with the ancient Celtic celebration of Samhain. This marked the end of the season and people would dress in animal costumes and light fires. Over time, this evolved into a Catholic tradition and became known as “All Hallows”.

Halloween was brought over to the United States from England. The traditions changed and people gathered to dress in costumes and tell scary stories. This is how the first Halloween parties were born.
Trick or Treat?
In the 1800s, the tradition of pulling pranks on Halloween was born. In the 1920s, Halloween candies were developed by candy shops and they were used to minimize pranking. People would give one of these treats to prevent being pranked and trick or treating was born.
