What does fall mean for you? Is it colorful fall foliage, cooler weather, everything pumpkin spice? Maybe it’s all of the above. However, for some of you, it means only one thing. It’s Halloween and time to get your spook on! If that’s the case, here are some of the many haunted houses in Alabama you must try out!
Haunted Houses in Alabama



For easy finding, I have organized these haunted houses in Alabama by region. As with everything this year, be sure to check each haunted house’s requirements for admission and exercise caution if attending. On the positive, enjoy the requirement of wearing a built-in costume item! 😉
