Halloween is firmly rooted in Anglo-Saxon tradition, much to the delight of the French.
New York and London remain among their favorite destinations for a festive, colorful (local) holiday. For those who don’t wish to cross the Channel or the Atlantic, Disneyland Paris always attracts visitors with its “wickedly funny” shows and Halloween party.
Favorite destinations or little discoveries: Expedia has put together a special Halloween address book for hotels leading you right into the footsteps of Count Dracula or his creator Bram Stoker. Monstrously inspiring.
When New York turns into a pumpkin
Halloween in New York is a wonderful event. Young and old alike dress up, children knock on doors asking the famous question “a trick or a treat”, streets are decorated and shops are decked out in Halloween colors. And a huge parade in the heart of the city attracts over 50,000 people.
Address book Expedia Hotel Pod 39 is a stone’s throw away, and its red-orange colors are just right for the festivities. https://www.expedia.fr/New-York-Hotel-Pod-39.h5321579.Description-Hotel
London and its haunts
London celebrates Halloween with passion and eccentricity. On the trail of Jack the Ripper in East London, aboard the ghost bus, in the London Dungeon or in a haunted pub, London has more than one trick up its sleeve to make you shiver with delight. Address book Expedia Grange Blooms Townhouse Hotel next to the British Museum is reputed to be haunted by the ghost of John Cumming, a former government minister who would love to visit guests and predict the end of the world. https://www.expedia.fr/London-Hotel-Grange-Blooms-Townhouse.h21186.Description-Hotel

In the footsteps of Bram Stoker
Bram Stoker, the creator of Dracula, visited the English seaside town of Whitby in 1890. This visit had a strong influence on the writer, who set the scene for the famous “shipwreck of the Demeter”, marking his character’s arrival in England. Since then, the town has regularly celebrated the character and his creator. Address book Expedia The Raithwaite Estate Hotel is ideally situated in a bucolic setting, ideal for reading or rereading the novel. https://www.expedia.de/North-Yorkshire-Hotels-Raithwaite-Estate
