Halloween is so much more than trick-or-treating with the kids. Affectionately called “Spooky Season”, US Americans have made the entire month of October into a festive, fun and ghoulishly delightful holiday season that can be enjoyed as creepily or as adorable as you like!
Dive into adventure that combines the Great Outdoors among breathtaking autumn leaves with the phenomenon that is American Halloween. We could visit the birthplace of the Headless Horseman, cast spells with the spellbinding witches of legendary Salem – or make our way through haunted mazes, houses and hayrides and dance with goblins, ghosts and the undead! I’ll even tell you ghost stories around a campfire.
The US has several Halloween capitals that are great jumping-off points for an adventure (which can be as rugged or as luxurious as you like). This is a perfect way for those visiting the US to experience this country when it’s the most fun and beautiful. Spooky Season is not to be missed!
So what does an adventure guide and trip leader do?
Well, think of me as your personal confidant who is by your side from the start to finish of your dream adventure. First you’ll choose your excursion; then I’ll research, plan and book it for you, help you prepare for it, and finally – take you on it! I’ll even do all the driving and cook up your meals in the wilderness. Whether you are a seasoned trekker or it’s your very first time, as an experienced traveler and Wilderness EMT it’s my absolute joy and privilege to assist you and your loved ones to go on your dream vacation in the funnest, safest and most enriching ways possible.
How it works
Let’s get to know each other!
I’ll get to know what you love about Spooky Season (what a way to start a friendship!) and I’ll come up with some potential itineraries inspired by
you! So make sure to come with your inspirations; that could be a list of haunted places you’re dying to visit, things you want to experience, or even just some of your favorite ghost stories or a general vibe… share anything and everything that’s important for you to include in your dream Halloween adventure!
Choose your favorite excursions!
I’ll come up with and present to you a few itineraries for your upcoming haunted adventure. You’ll give me your input, pick a couple of your favorites, and then I’ll budget them out for you.
Get ready for your wild time!
Once you decide on your favorite adventure I take care of the rest. I’ll book everything that has to do with your trip (accommodations, reservations, tours, haunted hayrides, permits…
everything) which means that all you have to do is show up on the day of your trip and have a blast! If you chosen a more physically challenging adventure, I’ll develop a workout plan to train you and your loved ones for it, get you outfitted and even send you a packing list so nothing gets forgotten.
Go on your custom Halloween adventure!
Head out on your Spooky Season excursion with your very own adventure butler (me!). I even pick you up at the airport, do all the driving on the trip, cook in the wilderness, tell you ghost stories around the campfire... and I'll even have a few surprises for you along the way.
