If you're feeling up for some adventure this Halloween, these scary places to visit are ideal for those who aren't afraid of a few scares. These hotels, restaurants and travel packages are all about facing fears and checking out some of the creepiest places around the world.
Fans of the Walking Dead can immerse themselves in Zombie Boot Camp, which is set up like a post-apocalyptic world where you're challenged to defend yourself with a paint gun against the undead. For something that will involve less adrenaline, but just as much of a thrill, there's also the Dark Souls Cafe in Tokyo that's staged to look like the medieval horror world you'll find in the Dark Souls 2 video game.
