Halloween is right around the corner and if you still haven't made any plans, here are some ideas to get a frightening night started off right.
The Ocean House in Carlsbad (fomerly known as Neimans) is hosting Boogie Nights, a costume party. Musical guests include DJ Craige Smoove and the M -80s. There will be a contest for the best costume with prizes. The party kicks off at 9 p.m. and is 21 and up with a cover charge of $10. For more information call (760) 729-4131.
The Haunted Hotel in the Gaslamp District is one of the most popular places to check out during the month of October. "Hostel," "Saw," "House of Wax" and "Texas Chainsaw Massacre" are just a few of the horror films that come to life at the Haunted Hotel. The Haunted Hotel is in its14th year, so the special effects are bigger and better than ever. It is open from 6 p.m. to 1 a.m. and costs $13.99 to get in. For more information call (619) 231-0131.
Another attraction that's sure to send a chill down your spine is the Haunted Trail at Balboa Park. It's San Diego's only all-outdoor haunted location, which makes the unknown even more unexpected. Fairy tales with a dark twist is the Haunted Trail's theme for this year. It is open from 7 to 11 p.m. and costs $13.99. For more information call (619) 696-SCARE.
The Scream Zone at the Del Mar "Scaregrounds" is a terrifying Halloween encounter that you will never forget. The Scream Zone features three different adventures, allowing you to chose one, two or all three. The "Haunted Hayride" includes a haywagon trip toward the back of the racetrack, the "Chamber of Chills" is a bloodcurdling walk through San Diego's longest tunnel of terror, and the "House of Horrors" features several rooms full of scary surprises. You can see all three attractions for $26.99, "Chamber of Chills" and one other for $17.99. Or just "House of Horrors" or "Haunted Hayride" for $13.99. The Scream Zone goes from 7 to 11 p.m. Go to www.thescreamzone.com for more information.
