Happy Friday! We are battening down the hatches for “Frankenstorm” and hoping it doesn’t disrupt Halloween here in Connecticut. In the meantime, here are some spooky Halloween travel ideas that I have found this week:

For some tamer fun, visit the New York Botanical Garden’s Haunted Pumpkin Garden – they are even open at night this weekend for a “Spooky Nighttime Adventure” – events are geared towards kids aged 5-12, although children of all ages will enjoy seeing the over 500 intricately hand-carved pumpkin sculptures.

If you are in New York City, head down to the Village to miss the event of the year – over two million people are expected for the Village Halloween Parade. Keep in mind, this is pretty much an event for the adults only, but it is a not to be missed experience.
Enjoy your weekend and keep your finger crossed that this monster storm stays out at sea!
Key West has an annual Fantasy Festival" its not an official Halloween event but it lasts 10 days and ends near the end of October. I highly recommend it – not for the kids. Lots of parades, costumes and much fun Key West style.
