Eight American Towns Where Halloween Is the Whole Season, Not One Night

Architectural Digest has assembled a roster of eight towns across the United States that treat October as a season-long production rather than a single evening of porch lights and candy. The magazine frames them as destinations, places worth a trip in their own right once the leaves turn, and encourages readers to plan the visit without hesitation. For anyone who follows houses, the appeal is obvious: a town that commits to the holiday at this scale is usually a town that takes its streetscapes and its old homes seriously the rest of the year.
