Where To See Halloween Decorations and Haunted Houses Around Los Angeles

For many families, October is all about Halloween, and there are many ways to celebrate. One of the perks of living in LA is that there are more creative and talented people here than anywhere else, so we get to see the coolest decorations and haunted houses all over town.

Here’s a list of amazing Halloween decorations you can see driving around SoCal in 2020. Make a point this year to get out there and see as many of them as you can.

If you’re looking for Haunted Houses, just be sure to check if they’re open this year and whether they might be too scary for your little ones. (Before visiting, check the website for each location to make sure it’s appropriate for the age of your children). Happy Halloween!
