Halloween in Utah this year

Halloween lands on a Saturday this year, making it a prime weekend night for lots of fun things to do all across Utah. Most haunted houses, corn mazes and pumpkin patches run right up to Saturday night, the biggest trunk-or-treats and city carnivals crowd onto the last two weekends of October, and a handful of haunts keep their doors open into November. If you've been meaning to get to one, there are more good nights left than it might seem.

Go Do pulls every one of these from the calendars of the farms, haunts, theaters, libraries, museums and cities that run them, and checks them daily to be sure all of our suggestions are as current as possible. See below for our top picks and the full list of everything going on around Utah with links to the full details about each one, a map, and even weather forecasts, restaurants, and hotels nearby.

This guide lets you choose between everything going on and easily plan on the kind of night that's perfect for you. If you want to be scared, start with the haunted houses. If you have little ones, skip ahead to the not-so-scary section. Corn mazes and pumpkin patches, shows and concerts, ghost tours, grown-up parties, Day of the Dead and costume runs each have their own section, and the full list of all 543 events sits below the guide. Enjoy, and have a happy and safe Halloween!

How to plan your Halloween night

Pick your scare level first. Haunted houses are made for teens and adults, and most set a suggested minimum age; it's worth checking before you bring a younger sibling along. A few go further than jump scares: full-contact haunts let the actors touch you, and they say so up front. If anyone in your group is on the fence, a haunted hayride or a lights-on walk like Fright Lights is a better way to go.

Go early in the week or early in the night. The Friday and Saturday nights closest to Halloween are the busiest everywhere, and this year that means Oct 23–24 and Oct 30–31. Weeknights, and the first hour after the doors open, are usually the shortest waits. When a haunt or farm sells tickets online, buying ahead is a great way to get in on the night you want.

Dress for a cold, dirty night. Most of the best haunts and mazes are outdoors on farmland, so expect dust and dirt, uneven ground, fog effects and, if it's stormy, even mud. Closed-toe shoes and a warm layer you don't mind getting dirty make the night a lot more fun, and after dark October gets cold fast, especially in Northern Utah.

Make a night of it. Most of the big farms sell food on site, and every Go Do listing shows the restaurants nearby, so you can line up dinner before a haunt or hot chocolate after a corn maze. On a budget? 86 Halloween events this season cost nothing, from scarecrow walks and library parties to downtown trick-or-treating. See details below.

Haunted houses: Salt Lake, Davis, Weber and Tooele

The Wasatch Front's haunts range from a six-building downtown warehouse to haunted corn fields on the edge of town. Most run on select nights through Halloween, and a few keep going into November. The dates and prices for each one come straight from the venue's listing; open the listing for the exact nights and for more details.

If you only get to one, pick by the kind of scare you like: big indoor sets and long walk-throughs downtown, or outdoor trails through the corn where the dark does half the work.

Frightmares

Now through Sun, Nov 8 · Lagoon, Farmington · $30

Lagoon turns the amusement park into a Halloween event with more than nine haunted attractions, plus rides, games and Halloween shows, all on one ticket. It's a good pick for a group that can't agree, since half of you can ride while the other half gets scared. It runs into November.

Haunted houses: Utah County and Heber

Utah County has some of the longest-running haunts in the state, and they're close enough together that a Provo, Orem or Lehi group can choose by night rather than by drive. Two of the three sit on working farms with corn mazes, so a haunt can turn into a whole fall evening. Check them out below.

Photo: Haunted Forest

Haunted Forest

Now through Sat, Nov 7 · Haunted Forest, American Fork

American Fork's Haunted Forest is a Halloween tradition that began in 1990, and it covers more than 1,000,000 square feet of trails and sets, by the organizers' count. It's open into November.

Haunted houses: Southern Utah

Southern Utah's haunts are a bit warmer than up north, and they pair well with the region's scarecrow walks and harvest festivals. From St. George it's an easy evening to hit some of the options in Washington, and Kanarra Scare could be a great option for those on their way to or from Cedar City.

Haunted houses at a glance

Corn mazes and pumpkin patches

65 corn mazes, pumpkin patches and fall farm festivals are on Go Do this season. Most close Oct 31, and some patches close as soon as the pumpkins run out, so the earlier you go, the better your pick of pumpkins.

A lot of these farms have been doing this for decades, and most bundle the maze with hayrides, slides, animals and food. Check what the ticket includes on each listing; some charge separately for the extras or sell pumpkins by the pound.

Not so scary: Halloween for kids

274 trunk-or-treats, carnivals and kids' events are listed this season, most of them on the last weekend of October. These are the bigger ones, plus a few that run on many nights.

For the littlest trick-or-treaters, the best bets are the events made for them: city carnivals with a Trick or Treat Street, lights-on walks, and daytime trunk-or-treats. They're warmer, shorter and a lot less crowded than walking a neighborhood after dark, and most are free or just a few dollars.

For grown-ups, the parties start around 8 PM. Most haunts are open their last night of the season, which also makes it their busiest.
