Ideas for spooky Halloween getaways?

Looking for a place to get spooked?

AJC blogger Keith Still writes about the south’s most haunting destinations. There are ghostly attractions worth visiting just a few hours drive away in Savannah and Charleston and Chattanooga.

“There’s something haunting about a region that has hundreds of Civil and Revolutionary War battlefields dotting its landscape. While our country’s “most haunted” battlefield lies a few miles north of the Mason-Dixon Line in Gettysburg, Penn., many bloody Civil War battles took place within a short drive of Atlanta. Chickamauga Battlefield near Chattanooga, Tenn. has been ranked the third most-haunted battle site in the U.S. A spooky late-night train ride through that hallowed ground might scare the pants off of anyone!”

Have you visited any of these spooky places? Of course, as Still reminds us, Halloween trips don’t have to be scary. Where are some of your favorite pumpkin patches?
