If you could visit any town in Colorado for Halloween, which would you choose? Estes Park (and the Stanley Hotel)? Maybe Denver (with its many haunted houses)? Or how about Colorado Springs (for the same reason)? While all of the above are stellar picks, we happen to think that this unassuming Colorado town is, in fact, the best to visit during the Halloween season:

If you thought walking across the 956-foot-high Royal Gorge Bridge was scary, wait until you visit at Halloween during the annual Boo at the Bridge Spectacular!
Royal Gorge Bridge & Park Facebook The Boo at the Bridge takes place on October 22nd (2022) from 4 to 7:30 p.m. and features tons of trick-or-treating fun for the littles.

TripAdvisor/Cam M The Museum of Colorado Prisons is housed in a former women’s prison and is said to be home to many unexplainable sights, smells, and sounds.
In addition to all of the above, other area businesses and attractions host special once-a-year events, including The Halloween Show at Cañon City Brews and Bikes Co.
