13 of the Best Places to Celebrate Halloween Around the World

For a spooky Halloween, where better to celebrate than the home of the original vampire himself, Count Dracula? Every year, fearless tourists flock to Transylvania and Bran Castle (the castle of the prince who inspired the story behind Dracula) to celebrate Halloween with costume parties and even actors playing out Dracula-inspired scenes. While Halloween is not a public holiday in Romania, a similar celebration takes place every year on Nov. 30, St. Andrew's Night. The holiday honors the country's saint but also includes many elements of Halloween, like busting out garlic to ward off ghosts and evil souls.
