Halloween falls on a weekend this year, and hotels around the country are going all out enticing travelers to celebrate with a getaway. Here's a round-up of some of the Halloween-themed packages I've found:
West Hollywood knows how to celebrate Halloween, with a half million people expected to attend the 22nd annual Halloween Costume Carnaval. Hotel specials include $199 per night at the London West Hollywood, or $245 per night with daily breakfast when staying two nights in a suite at the Le Parc Suites Hotel (code: Halloween).
