Tips & Advice

  • Check the Facebook page by 4 PM on event days for weather-related open/closed status to avoid a wasted trip.
  • Consider attending on a 'Special Event' night like First Responders Night or Baltimore County Appreciation Night for discounted admission with valid ID.
  • If you have young children or are easily scared, utilize the 'chicken bypass' or waiting areas to avoid the most intense parts of the attraction.
  • Be prepared for uneven terrain, damp conditions, and extreme darkness; wear sturdy, closed-toe shoes and clothing you don't mind getting dirty.
  • Leave valuables at home, as the park is not responsible for lost, stolen, or damaged property due to the nature of the attractions.
