Due to the large number of ghosts they can hold, haunted houses are consistently scarier than cursed sleeping bags, possessed lean-tos, and ectoplasmic studio apartments.

Back for its second year, the Halloween Spook-trac-ula scares souls and decorates the confines of the Texas Transportation Museum, which chronicles the history of San Antonio’s transportation with a 1913 depot, model train layouts, and full-size engines, cars, and cabeese. An eerie Ghost Train will transport passengers to the depths of fear and back, and a haunted hayride totes fright-seekers around the grounds to witness the horrific, tremble-inducing decorations as they sit among possessed hay borrowed from zombie scarecrows. Visit the storyteller in the outdoor garden area to hear ghost stories, or catch a ride on the Train-sylvania Express to seek out the ghost of Dracula during his teenage phase as a train conductor. Although this event is sure to thrill and spook attendees of all ages, it is geared toward younger family members, shying away from typical blood, guts, and property tax displays.

Although the Texas Transportation Museum sometimes features a discounted price online, this Groupon still offers the best deal available.
