Last Chance: The real-life Halloweentown is near Seattle & it’s the final weekend to visit

Are you a huge fan of spooky season and fall movies? If so you’re probably no stranger to the 1998 Disney classic, Halloweentown. But did you know that you can actually visit it in person and that it’s only about three hours from Seattle?

That’s right, St. Helens, Oregon served as the backdrop for this fan-favorite movie, psst, parts of Twilight were also filmed here. But what that means for you is that you can enjoy a Halloween celebration here all month long.

Watch as the Riverfront District takes on the Spirit of Halloweentown with a celebration of all things spooky. It’s truly the perfect event for people who love the classic Halloween movie.

Visitors can see some iconic parts of the movie in person like the giant pumpkin at city hall, the movie theatre, and the dentist’s office.

That means you’ll want to get dressed up because you’ll have tons of photo ops. Not to mention you can also enjoy additional events and attractions like a haunted house, train ride, Alpacas, and the Big Halloween Exhibit among other things.

Here’s the catch, this weekend is the last fully operating weekend. So, if you’ve been looking to take a day trip, this might just be the perfect activity for you. Happy Halloween!
