Halloween is officially NINE DAYS AWAY, and if your plans are nonexistent, we need to talk.

Seattle's got plenty of ways to get spooky, from haunted houses and massive costume parties to creepy concerts and pumpkin patches. We've rounded up all the Halloween happenings worth leaving the house for.

THIS is your last-minute reminder to get your spooky sh*t together!!

And if your ideal Halloween involves dancing until you’ve sweated through your costume, we've got something for you! BOO Seattle is taking over WAMU Theater October 30–31 with three stages and 50+ DJs, and we're giving away tickets so you can get in on the madness for FREE. Enter to win!*

JUST ANNOUNCED

• A little darkness feels appropriate for October. North Corner Chamber Orchestra presents Darkness, a program moving from the stillness before dawn to music shaped by grief and remembrance. Catch it at Woodlawn Hall on 10/24 or Washington Hall on 10/25.*

• Mt. Joy brings the folk-rock, Rainbow Kitten Surprise brings the indie grooves, and The Gorge handles the scenery. Catch both bands at the amphitheatre on 8/28. We're giving away a pair of tickets!*

• Angry at the state of the world? Lambrini Girls can relate. The Brighton punk duo channels political frustration into loud guitars and even louder opinions. They're bringing No Refunds to The Showbox on 4/15 with SPRINTS.

• If you're into The Cure, Echo & the Bunnymen, or moody British post-punk, The Chameleons should be on your radar. The Manchester band brings its signature sound to The Crocodile on 5/1.

• Plus other just announced shows!
