Tips & Advice
- Arrive by 7 PM to redeem your ticket vouchers for earlier attraction entry times, especially on busy nights.
- Consider visiting on a non-peak date (like a Friday or Sunday) to save on ticket prices and potentially experience fewer crowds.
- While the main haunted attractions are not fully accessible, the Firegrounds are, and staff can assist with boarding the hayride.
- Dress in layers and wear comfortable shoes, as you'll be navigating outdoor terrain and potentially waiting in lines.
- If you plan to attend both the daytime Fall Festival and Fields of Fear, remember they are separate events requiring distinct tickets, and the grounds close between them.
