Don’t be afraid that summer is over – there are many ways to extend the travel season into fall! One of the most thrilling opportunities is one state away in Ohio at Cedar Point where their Halloweekends motto calls for “fun by day, fright by night.”

The amusement park, in Sandusky, is open for Halloweekends (weekends, including Friday nights, celebrating Halloween) through October 27. Here are three not so spooky reasons why you’ll want to take a road trip to check it out!

Get in the spirit: Cedar Point is known for its 18 world-class roller coasters. By visiting for Halloweekends, you’ll get the summertime thrills with a unique spin on the fall season. The park is decked out in Halloween décor that adds a fun twist to the usual park experience. Families can enjoy The Great Pumpkin Fest with fall activities while the more daring can try scare zones or zombie mazes. No matter which you choose, you’ll be in the true Halloween spirit.

Less ghosts and goblins: While Halloweekends kicked off with a large crowd reminiscent of summer, the number of visitors slows as the temperatures cool giving visitors easy access to those world-class coasters with less wait time. It also means shorter lines at new restaurants like the BackBeatQue, where you’ll often find live music and savory smokehouse BBQ that’s nothing to be afraid of!

There are a variety of dining options to choose from within the park.
