We all know Halloween isn’t just for kids. In New York City alone, more than two million people attend the funky Village Halloween Parade each year. And who doesn’t enjoy playing dress up occasionally to attend a party for treats of a more adult nature? (I’m talking gourmet food and alcoholic beverages, folks.)

 

So get your masks on!

Willow Stream, the signature spa of Fairmont hotels, is offering a scary-good deal on facial treatments this Halloween season. For the month of October through the weekend of October 31 (including November 1), participating spas in North America are offering free personalized beauty BOOsting serums (a $45 to $49 value) and 25 percent off any mask with a 60- or 90-minute facial treatment, whether you need to detoxify, cleanse, hydrate, soften, moisturize or remove impurities from your skin (or all of the above). And that’s not all—each guest who books a facial in October will receive one of Willow Stream’s Energizing Boost Ampoules.

 

I can’t think of a better way to exorcise those skin demons.

Happy Halloween everyone! This is my absolute favorite holiday. When I was a kid it meant dress-up time. As a young adult going through my punk-come-goth phase, it meant I wouldn’t get quite so many stares from strangers when I’d be out and about on the streets.

 

Today I enjoy the holiday because I live in a residential area of Brooklyn and love seeing all the kids in the neighborhood in their awesome outfits heading to school in the morning and trick-or-treating in the evening. The Halloween Parade in New York City’s Greenwich Village is one of the best of its kind, and I also still get to play dress-up at parties (and pull out my old leather and pleather garb, along with some other accessories that shall remain nameless).

There are plenty of destinations around the globe that attract visitors specifically for their Halloween events or reputation for being haunted or chilling destinations. (Read about them in our Top Monster Mashes and Halloween Bashes article.) One of the spookiest/most chilling places I’ve ever visited was Dachau, the former concentration camp in southeast Germany.

 

What are some of the spookiest places you’ve visited? Tell us here, then take our new poll over at www.travelmuse.com (you can find it on the lower right area of the homepage), and let us know which of five we’ve picked that you find the scariest to visit!
