Here is a list I compiled.
Major Halloween celebrations: Salem, MA, Sleepy Hollow, NY, New Orleans, West Hollywood, and Key West.
- Salem, MA. This is where the Salem Witch Trials were held 1692-3 and 20 “witches” were executed. The town proclaims its Halloween celebration as America’s biggest.
- Sleepy Hollow, NY. The "Legend of the Sleepy Hollow" written by Washington Irving in 1820 features the headless horseman. The town holds haunted hayrides, Gothic mansions, blazing pumpkins, parades, and the Headless Horseman himself.
- New Orleans, LA. Famous for voodoo and zombies, New Orleans knows how to put on a spooky party. One of the biggest celebrations is on Frenchman Street where everyone is in costume, some of which are flamboyant, elaborate or outlandish.
- West Hollywood, CA. The West Hollywood Halloween Carnaval is a wild costume party scene. Unique costumes by some of the most creative people on the planet.
- Key West, FL. Fantasy Fest is an annual ten-day carnival in a tropical paradise that celebrates creativity, imagination, freedom and music.
- New York City. The Greenwich Village Halloween Paradeis the world's largest Halloween parade, and it doubles as a pageant where participants can show off their wild and creative costumes. The real stars of the parade, however, are the larger-than-life puppets operated by volunteers.
