There are a ton of things that you can do as Halloween approaches if you're looking for a little Louisville Halloween fun. The following Louisville Halloween events and attractions are ideas for fun things to do this fall for both families and adults alike.
Blow Your Own Pumpkin at Glassworks
One of the coolest things to do for a holiday in Louisville is head down to Glassworks and blow a glass decoration. For Halloween, Glassworks is offering a "Blow Your Own Pumpkin" workshop. The workshop is $60 per person, and will be held at select times on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays in October.Caufield's Halloween Parade
The Caufield's Halloween Parade is an annual event where lovers of Halloween either gather to march down Bardstown Road with their costumes, floats, and decorated cars or line up along the sidewalks of the route to watch as the characters parade by. This event is sure to be a blast even though eating, drinking, and watching spooky characters walk down the street doesn't sound much different than a typical weekend night in the Highlands. The Caufield's Halloween Parade starts at 7 p.m. on Friday, October 9.Danger Run

Danger Run is a local Halloween tradition. It is a game of logic that is played in your car where you compete against other drivers to follow the limerick-styled clues that lead you down the route set by Danger Run officials. The cars whose miles match the mileage of the predetermined route most closely at the end of the race win thousands of dollars worth of prizes. This Halloween event will run on Fridays and Saturdays from September 25 through the end of October.
Dracula at Actors Theatre
Dracula is the perfect play to watch for a night of Halloween fun, and Actors Theater is giving you the chance to see it this October. Dracula will be on stage at Actors Theater of Louisville from September 18 through October 31. Adult tickets are $33.00 for weekday performances, including Sunday, and $41.00 for weekend performances.Ghost Tours

Louisville has two different Ghost Tours that each visit known haunted establishments in Downtown Louisville: Louisville Ghost Tours and Ghost Walking Tours of Louisville, Kentucky. Both take tourists to many different local destinations, telling haunting tales of history and mystery at each stop. The best part is that tickets to the ghost tours are comparative to tickets to a haunted house, though you'll spend much more time on a ghost tour than you ever will in a haunted house.
