I want to take a trip towards the end of October to some state that really knows how to celebrate Halloween. What I dont want is Halloween in Hawaii, or Halloween in Arizona. I want some place that captures the essence of autumn, pumpkin carving contests, street masquerades, themed food and drink, those fun houses where people jump out at you.
Some place where the leaves are beautiful and the culture is inviting, fun, and classically cool.
Got any ideas?

Greenwich Village, NYC, Manhattan for the village Halloween Parade. It is AWESOME and lasts for hours. The restaurants are filled before during and after the event.

The best in the US and possibly the planet is to see the Village Halloween Parade in New York City. This parade starts in the West Village and goes north through the west-side via the Avenue of the Americas. While best is biased and open for criticism this parade to answer your question is a must for anyone looking to have a great Halloween without your Arizona or Hawaii or anywhere else for that matter.

If you are into Haunted Houses, New Orleans has one of the best -- The House of Shock run by Rob Zombie himself.
The French Quarter also has all types of people dressing up for the holiday. But the New Orleans celebration is more of the dark side of Halloween (ghost, vampires, ect). A trip on a Haunted Mystery tour would be an excellent Halloween activity.
