By Megan Seling <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Candy, costumes, the annual screening of Hocus Pocus<\/em>\u2014that\u2019s all child\u2019s play. If you really<\/em> want a scare this season, pack your electromagnetic field sensors and take a trip to some of the country\u2019s most iconic haunted and horror movie houses. In some cases, you can even stay the night!<\/p>\n\n\n\n For example, this month Airbnb gave scary movie fans a chance to sleep over in the Northern California house where much of Wes Cravens\u2019 1996 slasher flick Scream<\/em> was filmed. The home is where Ghostface murdered multiple characters during a house party before being unmasked by protagonist Sidney Prescott. The promotional stays sold out quickly\u2014there were only three reservations available\u2014but short-term rental sites like Airbnb and Vrbo have several more spooky getaways<\/strong><\/a> that are worth checking out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Want less of a fright night and more of a fright day-trip? Here are eight more famous haunted houses and horror movie homes that you can visit in real life (the last one is a twofer!). Some are private residences, so you\u2019ll have to respect private property if you hope to snap a picture, but other spots, as you\u2019ll see as you read on, happily embrace horror fans. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Happy Halloween!<\/p>\n\n\n\n In this article<\/p>\n
