Haunted 5K & 13.1M at Raleigh, NC (42) 2026

The Haunted 5K & 13.1M in Raleigh, a US Road Running event, takes place at 9300 Deponie Dr. Both the 5K and half marathon begin at 9:00 AM. This is a Halloween-themed road race on concrete, not a trail run. Participants can select the 5K or the 13.1-mile distance. Packet pickup is available 30 minutes before the start and concludes 10 minutes prior. Pre-registration on RunSignup is required, as there is no race-day registration. Both distances feature an out-and-back course, designed for simplicity but offering repetition. The 5K completes its out-and-back loop twice, and the half marathon completes it six times, all within a three-hour time limit. Parking and restrooms are located by the playground on the park's north side, with the gate opening at 8:00 AM. Medals are provided to all finishers, and awards will be presented. Series points are awarded, and a best costume prize adds to the Halloween atmosphere.
