For a spooky good time, visit Monster Mini Golf where you can golf amongst monsters. This indoor mini golf course and recreation facility has a Halloween theme that is torn between scary and silly, great for adults looking for a gimmicky glow-in-the-dark course or children looking to have fun with the bright neon and black light colors.
Escape to the Eagle Rock Reservation in Essex County. This forest reserve and park takes up more than 400 acres of land in this densely populated metro area. The park is filled with rolling hills, valleys, streams and an extensive trail system. The rustic view of the great outdoors is not all that will take your breath away, however. The Essex County 911 Memorial provides an unparalleled view the New York City skyline.
