Halloween in Front Royal, Warren County, VA: Plan the Retreat, Stay for the Spooky Season

Front Royal does Halloween the way it does everything else: with the whole town in on it.

For two weeks, Main Street turns into a stage for ghost stories, the corn at South River Farm grows a haunted trail, and pumpkins fall out of airplanes at the Front Royal-Warren County Airport. Trunk-or-treats pop up from Chester Street to the Little League ballfields, the library takes teens ghost hunting in its garden, and Halloween night ends with a 10pm, $1 showing of The Rocky Horror Picture Show at Royal Cinemas.

For an offsite meeting or retreat, that's a gift. Schedule your strategy sessions for the morning, then send your team out to a lantern-lit ghost tour, a Day of the Dead printmaking night, a vineyard screening of Sleepy Hollow, or an adults-only Monster Mash where every ticket supports Debbie's Lighthouse. Your group walks straight into Front Royal, Warren County, VA already celebrating.

Here's every Halloween event on the books from Wednesday, October 21 through Halloween night.
