Halloween in college might mean you’re a little too old to go trick or treating, but that doesn’t mean you can’t put on your favorite costume and have some fun.
Lipscomb and Nashville offer a variety of events for the Halloween weekend including movie showings, concerts and haunted hayrides.
During the day, check out some of the Nashville area’s best pumpkin patches including Gentry’s Farm in Franklin and Walden Farm in Smyrna. Both have mazes, hayrides, face painting and farm animals.
If you’re looking for something a little scarier, check out some of Nashville’s greatest haunted houses such as Nashville Nightmare, Monster Mountain or Slaughterhouse.
