Here are a few spooky and fun ways to celebrate Halloween in Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge:
1. Great Pumpkin Luminights at Dollywood

It’s a highlight of October and the entire fall season in the Smokies!
2. Coasters and Ghouls at Rocky Top Mountain Coaster
Rocky Top Mountain Coaster is the longest mountain coaster ride in the Smoky Mountains, and their Coasts and Goblins is a great way to experience Halloween thrills in Pigeon Forge!

3. Halloween Presentations at Mysterious Mansion
The Mysterious Mansion is a highly rated year-round haunted house in Gatlinburg, but it gets even more spooky on weekend evenings in October! The Halloween presentations at Mysterious Mansion intensify the fear with extra actors, plus a new and unique theme each year! If you can’t visit on a weekend night, you will still love experiencing the horrors of Mysterious Mansion as you make your way through the spine chilling corridors, winding staircases, and secret chambers! You never know what restless, rotting residents might be lurking around the corner in each foreboding room ahead!
