Halloween 2011 Long Island/NYC

This year I had the pleasure of making my Halloween an eventful one. My two cousins from Chile were visiting just in time for me to show them what Halloween was all about in New York. In Chile Halloween is celebrated but not nearly on the scale it is here. As you may or may not know Halloween has been adopted by many modern cultures and societies around the world but it's more of a chance for kids to dress up and trick or treat, and while that is still the heart of the holiday her in the U.S. it's also become an excuse for teens and young adults to unleash their inner child and wreak havoc on our city :)

My Halloween started out on Long Island at Bayville Scream Park "Long Islands #1 Halloween Theme Park"


The park boasts about 5 different haunted houses with different themes but the main attraction is the Bloodworth Haunted Manor. They also have a Halloween themed bar inside for the 21 and over crowd.


On Monday October 31st we trooped it to the city to see the Halloween Parade in the village. It was packed as usual but got to see most of it hanging from a light post lol.

Once the parade was over we headed to Splash Bar where we finished off our night before returning back to Long Island for some R&R. I'd post pictures of Splash but it probbably wouldn't be appropriate HA!
