Thurs, Oct 25 LITE NITE (ages 5-12)      5pm-9pm

(less scary version of the Haunted House)

Advance $6 per person; $9 per person beginning Oct. 6. Adults MUST purchase a reservation with their kids.

Reservations on sale September 15. Limited availability. Reserve your spot early! 

Unlike other haunted houses, we use a reservation system, rather than make you wait standing in line for hours with your kids. This also means we take smaller groups at one time. It’s a special experience for each group, who get their own “tour.”
