Fall is arguably the best time of year for seasonal activities. Sure, summer brings beautiful days at the beach and the holidays are plenty of fun, but autumn signifies the transition between seasons and brings opportunities that we can’t help but look forward to. After days spent picking pumpkins and baking apple pie, we love exploring haunted houses as Halloween night gets closer. Some have scared us more than we’d like to admit, but is it really a haunted house if you’re not running away screaming by the end? If you love haunted houses as much as we do, check out these locations that are sure to scare your pants off.

Creepy Hollow, Texas

This haunted house has been ranked the 13th scariest in the entire US and the scariest haunted house in Texas. It’s actually made up of three different haunted attractions – one based on a genetic research facility with experiments gone wrong, one in the middle of the woods, and one called “Pitch Black,” where participants need to make it through in complete darkness.

Knott’s Scary Farm

Knott’s Scary Farm is the largest Halloween event in southern California. Theme park Knott’s Berry Farm is transformed into a haunted horrorscape filled with monsters, mazes, and other shows and attractions.

New Orleans Nightmare Haunted House

The New Orleans Nightmare Haunted House is definitely not for the faint of heart. This year, it includes a carnival of rabid outcasts, a bloodthirsty voodoo queen, and a criminal in a creepy pig costume with a chainsaw. Who comes up with this stuff?
