Halloween is almost here, and the scariest thing we can think of is staying home on October 31st. Fortunately, the holiday falls on a Friday this year, so touring bands from coast to coast in nearly all 50 states are dressing up and getting down. With so many Halloween concerts to choose from, we put together this handy list of all the notable ones we could find around the United States.
Check out the full list, organized by state, then city, then band name. Or it might be easier to find your city or state by searching this document (cmnd + f / ctrl + f).
