Miami
House of Horror Haunted Carnival, one of the biggest of its kind in South Florida, is actually four attractions—Silent Mall, Drown Town, Insanitorium and Scare Studios. They all promise to scare the crap out of you. Tour abandoned houses and explore the supernatural if you’re brave enough.
San Jose
Winchester Mystery House a house that is a bit more on the real side. The firearms heiress house is as authentic as they come and this year the site has opened two new rooms to spook any doubters.
