If you’re looking to do something different this Halloween, why not consider a trip to Branson? Offering the traditional Halloween celebrations—as well as some non-traditional ones—and the opportunity to enjoy one of our town’s most beautiful seasons, Branson is a favorite vacation destination on all fronts. From the mild to the wild to the extra-frightening, there’s no better place to celebrate America’s third favorite holiday than right here in the Ozarks and our Missouri mountain hometown enjoying Branson’s attractions!
Where to Trick or Treat
For families traveling with young children, trick or treating is extremely important, and thankfully, not necessary to forego during your Branson Halloween vacation. Your little goblins have the choice between three different locations, and because at least one of those locations holds its Trick or Treating night earlier, the opportunity to get more candy will make your child extremely happy! This year’s dates haven’t been released yet, but Branson Landing and Branson’s Tanger Outlets traditionally have sponsored trick or treating on Halloween night, while Branson Park and Rec’s Halloween BOOnanza is generally held the Saturday before.
Want to Be Scared?
Every year we say we won’t scream at Branson’s Haunted Screampark, but of course, every year we fail. This Screampark is scary, featuring four different attractions guaranteed to test the strength of your heart! Billed among Branson attractions as the Biggest Halloween Event and located at 236 Wild Valley Way in Branson West, you’ll want to go back again and again and again—if you survive your first visit, of course!
Want to Be REALLY Scared?
Fake ghosts may get your heart pumping, but it’s the real things that will test your mettle, and Branson Ghost and Paranormal Tours offer the opportunity to show what you’re made of! As you walk along the darkened streets of Branson, your guide will take you to the spots where the most restless of spirits are doomed to spend their days and nights.
It’s So Obvious
We almost don’t want to bring up this last activity, but we just can’t help ourselves! You come to Branson for the shows, so why not take in a Halloween themed one? The Hughes Music Show is proud to present the Howling Fun Show, held on October 27th, a Halloween themed show where the guests are invited to wear their most original costumes!
Stay in and Binge Watch Scary Movies and Enjoy Other Branson Attractions
Some of our best Halloween memories occurred after the last goblins and ghouls were tucked in bed dreaming of their All Hallows Eve experiences; we’d “borrow” candy, pour ourselves a drink, and settle in for a long night of binge watching scary movies, just as you can do today in your Sunset Nightly Rentals vacation escape. Our homes offer state of the art electronics, plush furnishings, and a quiet place to binge watch your own favorite spooktaculars— contact us and reserve yours today!

Rainy days in Branson are our favorite things in the world. Contrary to what most people believe, summer showers do not put a damper on your activities; they just add a little extra shimmer to an experience that already sparkles brightly! You don’t have to be a good sport to enjoy your time in the deluge. We honestly think you won’t even notice the dampness when you partake in these awesome Branson rainy day activities that help chase away the rainy-day blues!
Experience the Natural Side of Branson
The Butterfly Palace and Rainforest Adventure allows you to experience the beauty of nature without getting rained on at all. Located at 4106 West Highway 76, both of these magical activities will keep your family entertained throughout the storm.
Take a Walk Back in Time with These Branson Rainy Day Activities
Relive your childhood days with a visit to the World’s Largest Toy Museum, found at 3609 West Highway 76. This unique museum is filled with more than a million of your favorite toys. From the first Barbie Doll to that iconic Lionel Train set, the toys found here will bring more than a few happy memories to mind during your rainy-day adventures.
Go Fishing
Everyone knows that fish bite more when the rain is falling, so rent a pole, grab some bait, and head to any of the three lakes in the area—Lake Taneycomo, Table Rock Lake, or Bull Shoals Lake—and work on catching the night’s dinner. Quiet, peaceful, and yes, slightly damp, the wet won’t matter at all when you get your first taste of the beautiful bass you caught with this Branson rainy day activity!
Head Underground for a Few Hours
Talking Rock Caverns, found at 423 Fairy Cave Lane, offers a magical escape from the showers above. We’ve done a lot of traveling over the years, and these caves are about the most beautiful we’ve ever seen!
Go to the Shows
Let’s face it: The Branson shows are really why you are here, and if you’re inside, a storm of biblical proportions can be going on outside and you won’t really care! Legends in Concert, Amazing Acrobats of Shanghai, even a good magic show like the Magic & Comedy of Taylor Reed will take you away to another world where it never rains and you are always smiling!
Stay Inside Your Sunset Nightly Rentals Cozy Cabin
Our rentals are designed to be lived in, so why not take a day and play at home? Take a nap as the sound of the rain beating down on the cabin’s roof lulls you into a deep sleep, read a book on the patio with a cup of cocoa and a delicious muffin, or watch television until the skies dry out; it doesn’t matter what you do as long as you are having fun—reserve your stay today!
