You can’t do Halloween the right way in Arkansas without a visit to America’s most famous haunted hotel, the Crescent Hotel in Eureka Springs. This 19th-century hotel is said to be haunted by the lingering spirits of the many “guests who check out but never leave.” Countless visitors claim they’ve witnessed these famous ghost sightings and many have taken personal snapshots as evidence of their encounters.
As the second oldest cemetery in Arkansas, Mount Holly Cemetery is a must-see for the ultimate Halloween experience.

What’s Halloween without great costumes? Serving the River Valley and Northwest Arkansas with its locations in Conway, Fort Smith, and Rogers, the Party Place is one of the best spots in the state to meet all of your dress-up needs. The Party Place is not a seasonal shop and being open outside of the Halloween season is just one of the things that make it stand out.
