Can't Wait For Halloween!

Well, Halloween is fast approaching, and being that it's one of my favourite holidays of the year (I just love dressing up and handing out candy; the whole thing!) I thought I'd take a gander at Digg and see whether anything interesting is going on in the wonderful world of haunted houses, since I'm in the market to go see a few this year.

Turns out most of the really good ones are in the 'States, but if I get the chance I'd love to head down there and check some of them out. They look really spectacular!

Here's a link to the thirteen best haunted houses in the United States. Pay special attention to the ones in New Orleans: I was there a few years ago, and boy is it ever a creepy town. Beautiful, but creepy – especially at night time. All those old houses sitting in the middle of bayous...you can really see why Anne Rice decided to base the Vampire Chronicles there. You're half-expecting Lestat to leap out of the darkness and lunge for your throat any second – and in some of these haunted houses, that's just what happens!

Hope you enjoy it, and maybe I'll see some of you there this Halloween!
