Halloween and the peak of fall are creeping right around the corner. You may have noticed every store you enter is selling candy and costumes, every house you pass has Halloween decorations up, and every time you walk outside, you step on orange leaves. However, you’re still stuck on how to get into the spooky spirit. You feel too old to go out trick-or-treating but, you still want to celebrate. Here are some fun Halloween and fall activities that don’t just include trick-or-treating.The Terror on Totten Haunted House
