Must-Haves For Your Halloween Weekend With Us
Costumes
Halloween is the one day a year you can dress up and be someone else for a day! During Halloween Spooktacular Weekends at Mark Twain Lake Jellystone Park™, you and the family can dress in a different consume every day of your stay if you’d like! Enter our costume contests for a chance to win a fantastic prize. And don’t forget to get a costume for Fido! Your furry companions are part of the family too!
Trick-or-Treat Bags
Another fun activity families enjoy when they stay during a Halloween weekend is trick-or-treating! Be sure to pack bags for your little monsters to collect treats as they travel from one campsite and cabin to the next!
Loads of Candy
And speaking of trick-or-treating, avoid getting tricked by bringing candy to pass out! We typically estimate 400-500 kids at the park!
Spooky Decorations
What better way to set the Halloween mood than to decorate your campsite or cabin?! Not only does it help get everyone into a spooky spirit, but it’s also a fun activity that everyone in the family can participate in!
You don’t have to break the bank to make your site look fantastic! A quick trip to the dollar store or thrift shop and some creativity goes a long way!
Enter our parkwide decorating contest for a chance to win prizes! First-fifth places will be announced before the weekend festivities end.
Halloween Playlist
Add festive tunes to go along with your spooky campsite or cabin decorations. Create a playlist of popular Halloween-themed songs like
- “Monster Mash” by Bobby Pickett
- “This is Halloween” from The Nightmare Before Christmas soundtrack
- “Superstition” by Stevie Wonder
- “Somebody’s Watching Me” by Rockwell
- “Ghostbusters Theme” by Ray Parker Jr.
- “I Put a Spell On You” by Bette Midler
- “Thriller” by Michael Jackson
Glowsticks and Flashlights
These nifty supplies will come in handy in all sorts of ways. Throw a glow stick in your jack-o-lantern to keep it lit throughout the night. Give some to the kiddos to carry around when trick-o-treating so they are more visible. And use a flashlight to get around after dark, especially to safely navigate to the restrooms or take the dog out for one more potty break.
