Ways to celebrate Halloween

Ghost Tours & Haunted Walks

Beacon Hill, the Common and the old burying grounds, walked after dark with real records behind them.

Ghost & Pub Walking Tours

Haunted history between bar stops, in a city where the pubs are older than most of the country.

Dining in the Dark

A blindfolded dinner that takes away the sense you rely on most. Not scary, genuinely disorienting.

Salem Is an Hour Away

Boston is the base for Salem in October. Day trips and haunted happenings run all month.

Why Boston for Halloween

A City Built on Ghosts

Boston's colonial graveyards and gaslit streets make ghost tours feel genuinely eerie, not staged.

Salem Is 30 Minutes Away

Book a Salem witch trial walking tour or haunted pub crawl and make a full Halloween night of it.

Something for Every Crowd

Spooky kids' tours, adult burlesque parodies, pitch-black dinners. Halloween Boston covers the full spectrum.

Halloween FAQ

When is Halloween 2026?
Halloween falls on Friday, October 31, 2026. Many events in Boston and other US cities run the entire last week of October, so check dates early and book ahead.
What are the best Halloween events in Boston?
Halloween in Boston ranges from haunted historic sites in Beacon Hill to costumed bar crawls in the Fenway neighborhood. Candlelight concerts and themed dinners also pop up across the city each October.
Are there Halloween events for kids in Boston?
Most Boston events here are for adults, including the ghost and pub walking tours. Older children can join the daytime history walks. Salem, an hour away, runs the family programming this city does not.
How far in advance should I book Halloween tickets?
Popular Halloween events in Boston sell out two to three weeks before October 31. Haunted experiences and candlelight concerts tend to go first, so booking by early October is a safe bet.
What should I wear to a Halloween event?
It depends on the event. Nightlife parties in Boston typically reward full costumes, while candlelight concerts or dinners lean toward elegant Halloween attire. Always check the event page for any dress code details.
Are Halloween events in Boston indoors or outdoors?
Both. Haunted houses and candlelight concerts are usually indoors. Halloween parades and pumpkin trails happen outside. New England Octobers run cold, so layer up for any outdoor Halloween night plan.
What types of Halloween experiences are available for adults?
Adults in the US can choose from immersive horror experiences, rooftop costume parties, escape rooms with Halloween themes, live concerts by candlelight, and multi-course Halloween dinners in historic venues.
Can I find last-minute Halloween tickets?
Sometimes, but high-demand events in Boston usually sell out before Halloween week. Check listings regularly in October. If a date is sold out, look for added sessions closer to October 31.

Halloween in Boston

Halloween in Boston hits differently when the fog rolls off the harbor and the gas lamps flicker on Beacon Hill. The city's 400-year history gives ghost tours real material to work with, from Revolutionary War burial grounds to colonial-era taverns. Whether you want a guided walk through haunted streets or a candlelight dinner in total darkness, Boston has a full calendar of events worth booking early.

Day-tripping to Salem is one of the smartest moves you can make during Halloween season. Witch trial history, satanic walking tours, haunted pub crawls, and family-friendly spooky strolls all sit within 30 miles of downtown. Pair a Salem afternoon with a Boston ghost hunt at night and you've got one of the best Halloween itineraries on the East Coast.
