20 Insta Captions For Haunted Houses That Will Spook The Sh*t Out Of Your Squad

You know that feeling when your stomach completely drops, and a cold sweat comes upon you? It’s the eerie feeling you get right before you’re about to step into a haunted house. You push your friends ahead of you, but then realize you don’t want to be at the end... because who the heck knows what's lurking behind you in the dark. It’s all nerves until you step inside, and the fun begins. Haunted houses, real or staged, are some of my favorite Halloween activities. I’m a big ole baby about it, but that doesn't stop me from being a major fan. I guess I love the adrenaline rush that comes along with having something jump out and scare the sh*t out of you. When you finally survive and exit the house, you’re overcome with laughter at how ridiculous you just reacted to everything. Don’t forget to snap an “I did it” picture with your crew, complete with some of the perfect Instagram captions for haunted houses.

You’ll want to brag to everyone that you made it through like a champ, even if you were screaming the entire time. You don’t have to share that information with any of your Instagram followers, unless you happen to snag a pic inside with you overreacting at something spooky. There's no doubt that picture will be priceless, and you have to justify your reaction with an Instagram caption that sends chills down your followers' spines. If you need help setting the right kind of mood, here are 20 scare-worthy Instagram captions you can use to accompany any haunted house pictures you take this Halloween. Be careful out there.
