Have you ever wondered what the best Halloween destinations in Europe are? Most
people believe Halloween is an American creation. However, the holiday
trick-or-treating, zombie parades and costumes is of Celtic origin. In the past,
people would wear costumes around bonfires to scare away ghosts during the
Celtic festival Samhain. Halloween is explicitly celebrated on October 31st
because, in the eighth century, Pope Gregory III designated November 1st as the
day of all saints.

Therefore, Halloween is instead of European origin. Moreover, in some places, it
has become a festival that lasts beyond the night of the holy. The following few
places plan superb Halloween festivals, offering fun for the whole family and
unique activities in the spookiest places on the planet. So, if you plan your
Halloween costume a year in advance, you will love these Halloween destinations
in Europe.

 * Rail transport is the most environmentally friendly way to travel. This
   article was written to educate about Train Travel and was made by Save A
   Train, The Cheapest Train Tickets Website In The World.





1. HALLOWEEN IN DERRY, NORTHERN IRELAND

Halloween enthusiasts rated Derry as the number 1 Halloween destination in
Europe. The ancient city walls encompass the most incredible Halloween display
of haunting and spooky projections on the walls. Since the 17th century
Halloween has been the biggest celebration in this Derry in Northern Ireland.

About a week before October 31st, the streets of Derry are adorned with a
Halloween atmosphere. For instance, visitors can enjoy great street shows, Jack
O’Lantern workshops, and locals in amazing costumes. To top it all off, you
wouldn’t want to miss the fantastic Return of the Ancient Parade. This parade
has been taking place for the last 35 years on October 31st in the old town
square.

2. HALLOWEEN IN DRACULA’S CASTLE, TRANSYLVANIA

It might not be the biggest Halloween festivity destination, but Transylvania is
definitely the most famous. The house of Dracula, the legendary vampire,
attracts thousands of Halloween lovers annually who find themselves wandering
the medieval streets, mesmerized by the fortified churches and Saxon Citadels.

While the original Dracula was actually Vlad, the Romanian emperor, famous for
its brutality, doesn’t stop travelers from arriving for Halloween festivities at
Bran castle. In addition to celebrating Halloween, visitors to this region in
Romania can explore the spooky castles in Transylvania, famous for stories about
haunting spirits inhabiting these ancient castles.

 


3. HALLOWEEN IN CORINALDO, ITALY

Italy is best known for its delicious cuisine, laid-back countryside, wine, and
la Bella Vida. However, the lesser-known side of this marvelous country is
revealed during Halloween. Corinaldo looks like an enchanting town with
incredible landscapes. However, Corinaldo’s rich history has put it on the map
of the best Halloween festivals in Europe.

The residents in Corinaldo will not only be dressed as witches and warlocks for
Halloween but will also celebrate their spooky heritage, as many of them are
witch descendants. Visitors will be able to meet them at the local witch and
crafts market, where there will be street performances and other surprises.
Corinaldo is in central Italy, on the banks of Nevola River, behind 14th-century
walls.

4. BURG FRANKENSTEIN, GERMANY

The inspiration for Marry Shelly’s novel, Burg Frankenstein in Germany, is home
to the longest Halloween festival in Europe. Originally the place inspired
Shelly to write the famous story about Frankenstein, the alchemist who used his
talents for more than alchemy.

Since then, Burg Frankenstein has become a top destination for Halloween lovers
from all over the world. Travelers from the US and Europe travel to Burg in
Germany to celebrate Halloween for two weeks. For instance, the iconic house
opens its doors to host themed dinner parties. In addition, families can with
children can enjoy the Halloween atmosphere through the various activities
during this time.

6. HALLOWEEN IN AMSTERDAM

In recent years Amsterdam’s popularity has become one of the best Halloween
destinations in Europe. During Halloween, Amsterdam’s canals wear the holiday
spirits and the beautiful houses’ spooky traditional decorations. However, these
details might be perfect for getting into the holiday spirit. Still, Amsterdam
has a bigger plan to create an unforgettable Halloween experience for the many
travelers arriving in late October.

Visitors to Amsterdam can enjoy scary movie marathons, ghost tours, fetish
parties, and many more surprises this charming has in store. In addition,
Amsterdam hosts a fantastic monster’s ball where you will meet spooky GoGo
Ghouls, admire the spectacular costumes of the Dutch crowds, and have a unique
Halloween atmosphere.

7. HALLOWEEN IN LONDON

London is always hectic and crowded with tourists who love its amazing vibes.
The British capital is a great shopping destination, with fantastic rooftop bars
for cocktails and a great cultural scene. However, London also has a darker side
that comes to life during Halloween. Dungeons, Jack the Ripper, and the ancient
streets of London create the perfect setting for a mind-blowing Halloween.

Thus, the streets’ trendy and posh capital for one week in late October turned
into a giant Halloween festival. In addition to Halloween events in the main
attractions, the rooftop bars and restaurants host Halloween dinners and
parties. So, book your stay in East London if you want to experience the
spookiest Halloween. This area is notoriously famous for its ghost stories of
serial killers and other legends.
