The Best Halloween Events Happening in Houston, TX 2022

Check out these awesome Houston Halloween events in 2022

Houston always feels a little eerie with the hazy, humid air and dark bayou seeping through the ancient city. However, things get most creepy around Halloween, when ghost tours and spirits glimpses into the city’s unearthly history are in full swing. There are also extremely gorgeous doggie costume contests and somewhat less attractive human costume contests, so it’s not all frightening. This year’s Halloweekend bashes will feature live music, flowing boo-ze, pumpkin smashing, and moon-howlin’ dance parties that will keep you up well beyond your regular bedtime. Here’s what you should do in Houston this #SpookySzn.

Saturday Spooktacular at The Feges
Feges BBQ Spring Branch Saturday, October 29
At the Smokehouse Saturday Spooktacular, Feges encourages all ages to celebrate Halloween Texas-style. Frozen adult drinks, Halloween cookies and activities for children, Hocus Pocus on the big screen, Miss Kathy’s New Orleans Style Snoballs truck, and a costume contest with prizes are all on the menu. And, of course, some smokin’ BBQ. The spooks are open from 3 to 6 p.m.
There is no cover charge; menu prices vary.

Every day in October, Houston Walk with the ghosts and (hopefully) live to tell the story on this local ghost tour that includes stops in Houston (including Hermann Park after dark and a hospital), Old Town Spring (one of America’s most haunted Old West towns), and Tomball (an eerie railroad towns that hold secrets and stories from the past).
Tours start at $17 per person.

Thursdays through Sundays in October: Nightly Spirits (plus Halloween)
Take a ghost pub tour in Houston to learn about the city’s eerie, lively history. The haunt begins at Char Bar (one of the town’s oldest pubs), where you may stock up on spirits before meeting the genuine deal on the three-hour walking tour.
