Spooky season is here, and those who love all things petrifying will be going all out in the lead-up to Halloween, perhaps even booking a trip away to some of the most spine-chilling destinations in the UK and beyond.
Whether you’re looking for a mystical wizarding-themed trip away with the family, a hair-raising holiday with a group of friends, or even a couple’s getaway to an eerie bedchamber where the hundred-year-old portraits on the wall seem to follow your every move, Airbnb has something for everyone.
Halloween devotees can choose to stay in remote castles, former churches, ghoulish towers or haunted manors – maybe experience your very own Cabin in the Woods night away with an off-grid stay in the wilderness.
York in the UK, or Salem in Massachusetts, USA, serve as some of the world’s spookiest destinations to explore, whilst supernatural-themed stays offer a skele-ton of fun.
