2023 DRIVING TOURS: Spooky Halloween Houses- Greenville, SC

Posted on | 25 Comments

Looking for some safe Halloween fun for the family? We put together this awesome driving tour of local homes with fabulously spooky Halloween displays. So load up the kids and go for a spooky drive. Which is your favorite stop?

Some people in the Upstate really get into decorating for Halloween and go all out. We’re talking 12 ft high skeletons, creepy carnival themes, flying witches, the works. And we found them and put them on a map for you to drive around and get into the Halloween spirit.

We’ve mapped out four routes for 2023: : Greenville, Simpsonville/Mauldin, Fountain Inn/Simpsonville, Greer, and Five Forks – see the map. **When looking at the map below, the addresses in orange have been confirmed for 2023. Any other color has not. We still have a few houses not on routes that we need to drive by but all the homes on each of the routes has been driven by and confirmed that they have great Halloween decorations!

Kidding Around Spotify Halloween Playlist

Enjoy some family-friendly Halloween music while you follow the tour, through the Kidding Around Spotify playlist we created. You can stream it through your car speakers with the Spotify App.

If you have homes we missed, please fill out this form. We can’t accept additions any other way at this point because we have had so many people want to be on our tour!

And when you go and see these homes, please be considerate and not go traipsing around the property or driving too fast in neighborhoods, or hitting things with your car.

The Scare Rating

We’ve added a scare rating from 1-5 with 5 being the scariest, 1 being tame. This is subjective but the scariest one is the Haunted Castle of Mauldin due to the multiple instances of gore, terrifying clowns, headless babies, werewolves, and other nightmarish ghouls so that was the scale we weighed everything else against.

Here are the routes on a map and listed them below:

Don’t forget Pond Terrace Lane in the Carson’s Pond complex very close to Woodruff Road. We have a Halloween cemetery with lights that play to music, and the Tick Tock famous Bob Scary that does a new pose/ activity every day! There are other homes too that partake in the fun. Definitely worth it to check it out .
