We may not be sure how to dress for the weather each day: it’s chilly when we wake up, sweater-weather as we run errands, then downright sweltering after lunch.
But if there’s one thing we do know how to do well in Georgia, it’s celebrate Fall with flair!
It’s the month of Oktoberfest, with festivities across the state. And if you’d prefer to stay closer to home, check out these ghost tours and corn mazes!
Spooky Tours
Haunted tours are close to home, with options to walk or take a trolley, and gifted storytellers to share a combination of history and urban legend (with a bit of paranormal tossed in!)
In Marietta, the Haunted Walking Tour is a 90-minute, lantern-led walk of the city’s most haunted buildings, with ghost stories around a number of popular restaurants and attractions, including the Marietta Cobb Museum of Art! Tours are open Friday, Saturday, and Sunday throughout the month of October. Visit Haunted Walking Tour for more information.
If you’d prefer to ride while listening to your tour guide, check out the Scaryetta Haunted Bus Tour, a 90-minute trolley ride, detailing the “history and haunts” of some of Marietta’s most famous sites, including the Historic Marietta Square, and a selection of historic cemeteries (of course). Trolley tours are open every Friday and Saturday night throughout October. Learn more by visiting Scaryetta.
