The month of October isn’t over just yet and there’s still plenty of time to enjoy all of your favorite spooky attractions. All throughout the Empire State during this time of year, we see some of our most historical destinations transform into something new anad spooktacular. If you make your way out to the town of Bellport though, you’ll find that the region’s oldest theater truly emerges into something completely new and terrifying once the fall season rolls around. If you’re ready to see why so many people consider this to be one of our state’s best haunted houses, it’s time you get acquainted with Gateway’s Haunted Playhouse.

Gateway’s Playhouse is the oldest theater on Long Island, yet also happens to transform into one of the country’s best haunted houses during the fall season.
