Phoenix, Arizona · October 2026
Every weekend, one page
Haunts, parties, family nights, screenings and Día de los Muertos across the Phoenix metro, grouped by weekend. We put this together because we're throwing one of these nights ourselves and kept wishing a list like this existed. Dates and prices come from each event's own page and were checked in late September. Confirm before you go, and email us anything we missed.
