Creepy Halloween Lodgings
by Steve West on October 20, 2008
These creepy places to stay during a Halloween vacation may be too late to consider this year but they're not going anywhere soon so keep them in mind for the future. You can't stay in all of these places but for those that you can, there's that extra layer of creepiness.
The Haunted Hull House in Chicago. Let's get out of here Raggy!
Nighttime tour of Alcatraz. That place is creepy enough in the daytime.
The Crescent Hotel and Spa Sleep in a morgue.
The Lizzie Borden murder house is now a bed and breakfast! Would you like your grapefruit in 40 or 41 slices?
Merry England. Birthplace of the Tower of London, Jack the Ripper, and the Berry Pomeroy Castle.

All of this landscaping has taken a serious toll on my aged body, apparently. I actually had to take a day off from work to recover from an aching back. When younger (twenties), I could chop a load of firewood blah blah blah. Go »Halloween Time
I waited until October to write a post regarding Halloween so credit me that much. It's still a little early but this stuff is pretty good. First, some really great costumes. Go »Halloween Is For The Dogs
Last year for Halloween, I took all of Lauren's stuffed dogs and sewed their mouths to parts of my shirt and pants (with fake bleeding cuts on my arms and face) and went as an attack dog trainer. This year, I need to adopt or at least rent a dog so I can dress it like this for Halloween. Holy Kibbles & Bits Or this... Go »
