Fall is here, and St. Augustine, Florida, is the perfect place for a spooky weekend getaway. Known as one of the most haunted cities in the U.S., this historic town is full of ghost stories, legends, and eerie experiences.
Stay at a Haunted Hotel
Book a stay at Casa Monica Resort & Spa, located in the heart of downtown. Built in 1888, the hotel has a beautiful old-world style and is rumored to be haunted by former owners and prisoners. During October, the hotel offers themed spa treatments, nightly ghost stories, and a magic show. You can even request a haunted room for an extra thrill!
Experience Magic
Don’t miss Magic Hideaway, a magic show by Bill Abbott at Casa Monica. Enjoy close-up magic at your table, followed by a one-hour show of illusions and mind-reading. Shows run every Saturday through November, so book in advance.

Take a ghost tour or explore on your own. Some must-see spooky spots:
-
