Yes, we are talking about Halloween and all the frivolities that come with it. From Halloween-specific gigs to fun activities to indulge in with your friends and family, we bring you the best things to do for Halloween in Delhi.
1. Watch a scary movie
With shorter days in tow, why not celebrate the spooky season the classic way? Pick from a huge range of classic Halloween movies and scary shows that are perfect for the night. We recommend the same with a side of a blanket and a friend! From hits like Hocus Pocus and Beetle Juice to our very own Bollywood classics like Krishna Cottage and 1920 are all worth a rewatch.

Recruit your friends to a scary costume party, and decorate your house on theme with lots of Halloween treats and drinks to keep you company.
