Halloween in Second Life has always been a popular time of year and this year is no exception. Whereas many of you will already have plans for parties events and such like, the Second Life Destination Guide will also help you to find some gems which will be around for a few days at least, after the event.
Linden Lab have added a new attraction to their impressive Portal Park, a Haunted Halloween Tour.
Haunted Halloween Tour
What will you do this Halloween? Help children with a sugar fix? Buy overpriced masks from big-box stores? Do something different, something frightening and fun. Linden Lab is proud to present the Haunted Halloween Tour. Strap in and prepare to experience haunts, ghouls, death, scares, and a descent through madness itself. It’s definitely not for the faint of heart!

This is an attraction that takes advantage once more of the experience tools and allows you to ride a coffin up to the house and get spooked with shadowy figures appearing in the windows and much more.

Moving on there’s the Smithsonian De Los Muertos Festival taking place until November 2nd and on my brief visit this was a busy sim, although a lot of people were hanging around in the graveyard!
Smithsonian Dia De Los Muertos Festival
The Smithsonian Latino Center in collaboration with the University of Texas at El Paso are proud to present a Day of the Dead 3D experience, Oct 29 through Nov 2, 2014. Join them in celebrating Latino cultural heritage through this holiday for honoring both the dead and the cycle of life and death. There’ll be a Halloween dance party, dead poets reading, ofrendas, a meso-ballgame tournament, costume contests, music, art and more!

I’ll have to go back and take another look when I have more time because there was a sign regarding a film festival.

There are a couple more eye catching destinations which I haven’t fully visited yet. They aren’t specific Halloween destinations and in terms of the first one, it isn’t even a horror themed location, it’s more of an art destination. However I’ve seen some gorgeous images on Flickr of Little Town by Cica Ghost. I did land there and noticed that they had received over 300 visitors today and more than 300 yesterday.
Little Town by Cica Ghost
The inhabitants of Cica Ghost’s Little Town have all disappeared for the day, are they just hiding? Take this chance to to explore their quirky, curious, humorously delightful island.

Last, but not least, is a destination that unfortunately I haven’t yet visited yet. However it once again looks very impressive from the images I’ve seen. Damned Divine Haunted House has the look of a zombie apocalypse but is described as a sim wide haunted house.

Come visit the Damned Divine sim-wide haunted house experience! Will you survive the many and varied intricately-terrifying horror zones?
