Fall is a magical time of year. The leaves are turning Instagram-worthy shades of red and orange, the Pumpkin Spice Latte is back and sweater weather is rapidly approaching. What more could anyone want? If you need more than a cozy sweater, a PSL in hand and a ton of likes on Instagram and are looking for something to do before winter strikes, look no further. Here are some places that will make your fall a great one.

6. Sweet Hollow Road:  Sweet Hollow Road, South Huntington

Warning! You might not live to see another day. One of the most famous haunted spots on Long Island, Sweet Hollow Road is home to tons of spooky sights. If you dare go, look for Mary of “Mary’s Grave” and three boys hanging from the bridge.
