Halloween in Madrid: 2015 edition!

Halloween is upon us and the best place to celebrate is in Madrid, with AIL Madrid! Here are some of the spooky events coming your way this weekend, so boost your Halloween vocabulary in Spanish class and hit the town in your scariest costume!

*One fun note about Halloween in Madrid if you’re still deciding on a costume: Spaniards tend to go for scarier outfits (rather than cute), so keep that in mind if you want to feel like a native!  And don’t forget to share your pictures with the hashtags #AILMadrid (Facebook) or #AILMadridFun (Instagram)!
