When October is over, some are ready for the next holiday, Christmas. (Nobody seems to notice Thanksgiving anymore, sad.) Some keep living in Halloween, it's a bit easier here in Orlando because a little bit of Halloween lives here year round!

Let's look at a few Spookish Valentine's options for your lil monster! 



Here's a few ways to add a dash of scare to show you care:

A Night to Dismember at The Shallow Grave
This Valentines Day The Shallow Grave will bring you, "A NIGHT TO DISMEMBER". The Shallow Grave, Central Floridas #1 Rated Haunted Attraction gives you a chance to add a reason to get close to your "Sweet Heart". If you missed us in 2014 here is your chance to see what you missed along with a few new surprises. ADHD returns intact to push your limits and Haunted Hills has a few new bumps in the night to freshen things up a bit. But this may be your last chance to see Haunted Hills as it stands. On Friday the 13th we will be offering $13 single house tickets (in honor of the horror classic) or $20 combo passes for both houses. That's over a 20% discount. On Saturday the 14th V-Day, it gets a little more personal, you see on this special night Thaddeus wants to light the candles and dim the lights, Haunted Hills will be an all lights out event. You and 5 others will be dropped of on Thaddeus's porch with nothing more than your courage and a glow stick if your lucky. Thaddeus hopes you can make it out for this special occasion but he really has no plans on you leaving..... 

Friday /13 and Saturday 2/14: One House $15 and a combo pass will be $20, that's a 20% discount off the combo pass.

A Walking Moonlit Tour of Greenwood Cemetery 


Moonlight Walking Tours
The Moonlight Walking Tours take you on a historical stroll through Greenwood Cemetery. The walk is approximately four (4) miles within the 100-acre cemetery, and it will briefly visit about 100 graves of notable individuals in Orlando’s history.

The cost of the tour is free. However, many times each tour is sponsored by a different charity that will be accepting donations.

The next tour is on Friday Feb. 13th and registration opens January 23 at 9 a.m and will fill up super quick! 



Create your own romantic spooktastic evening with these year round options.

An evening in Old Town Kissimmee at Legends, a Haunting at Old Town
With plenty of restaurants, fun rides and one of the best haunts in the Orlando area, you can create your own scare care time. Legends is open year round and will be open from 7pm to 11pm on Friday 2/13 and Saturday 2/14. *Tip- don't wait till the last hour to go, sometimes they sell out for the evening! 

Downtown Orlando investigations of love and ghosts with American Ghost Adventures
With so many restaurants in downtown you can plan as fancy or low key dinner and then search for love and haunts around downtown Orlando. The tour is full of history and haunts and a great way to see downtown in a different light.


Need to shop for that special someone?
Might we suggest Curio Curiosity Shoppe in Ivanhoe Village. This shop has everything you never knew you wanted, Be sure to check the hours before heading out to shop, they're open very select hours. Plan on a while because this place has things every where and I mean every where from top to bottom and on every single inch of shelf space!
