Fall & Halloween Things To Do In The Providence Area

During the Fall and Halloween season, Providence, RI is brimming with ways to scare up some fun. During this most wicked time of year, don't miss the Jack-O-Lantern Spectacular at Roger Williams Park Zoo with its scores of illuminated and intricately carved pumpkins. Take a walk (or boat ride) on Providence's paranormal side on a Providence Ghost Tour and listen to some of the city's haunted tales. 

Literary fans will be interested to learn that H.P. Lovecraft, famed author of horror fiction, lived most of his life in Providence. Visit his grave in Swan Point Cemetery and see what mysterious mementos his fans have left behind. Looking for something a little less spooky? How about a warm meal and some pumpkin-inspired ales and cocktails at a local haunt

Book an overnight at one of the city’s fabulous hotels, and curate a Halloween getaway that is uniquely yours. Pick your wicked Providence today. 

WaterFire, an award-winning fire sculpture installation on the three rivers in downtown Providence, has become a must-see for visitors.
