America’s 15 Best Towns for Halloween
| October 31, 2016
Bar Harbor, Maine
Bar Harbor is a tiny, scenic town in Maine that also happens to be full of ghosts.
Locals will tell you all about the ghosts of eight missionaries killed in 1613 who still haunt a local spring, but you can find ghosts in town as well. Rumor has it that the local inn also hosts the ghosts of two young women who periodically throw vases and slam doors.
If you’re not in the mood for ghost stories, but you still want to celebrate Halloween in style, head over to the Acadia Veterinary Hospital which hosts an adorable Halloween party every year with prizes for the best costumed cat and dog.
