Okay boys and ghouls! As the Halloween decorations pop up on neighbors’ houses in Paran Homes’ communities throughout Metro Atlanta, it’s clear that the “witching hour” is nearly upon us. While some favor the candy and others take delight in a good horror movie in the weeks and days leading up to All Hallows Eve, only the truly brave find Halloween happiness in the hallowed halls of a haunted house. Luckily for YOU, Metro Atlanta is filled to overflowing with fearfully frightening destinations – many located just a short drive from our neighborhoods. You can spend the afternoon house hunting and then while away your evening being hunted by ghosts in a haunted house. To help you find your way, we’ve compiled a daunting directory so you can get your ghost on!
