Edinburgh

No Halloween bucket-list is complete without mentioning Edinburgh. From Edinburgh Castle to the infamous dungeons, it’s the perfect spot for a scary staycation.

The grown-up ghouls will enjoy Birmingham’s fancy dress club nights, complete with dancing, themed drinks, live music, and entertainers.

For some bonus screams, why not take a trip to Alton Towers’ 'Scarefest', located just over an hour from Birmingham Airport.

Take a ghost bus tour around the city or hop on the London Eye's 'Spooky Sailing' river cruise where you can hear about London’s supernatural tales along the Thames!

Visit the Tower of London where you might meet Edward V, Richard of York, or the famous White Lady, who are all reportedly still trapped in the notorious prison.
