Quick Actions
Tips & Advice
- Consider purchasing tickets online in advance to skip the general admission line at the box office and guarantee your entry.
- Dress for the weather and wear comfortable shoes, as most attractions are outdoors and involve walking on uneven terrain.
- If you're particularly sensitive to scares, ask about the free candlelight option available at the box office before 9 p.m. (not valid for the hayride).
- Arrive early, especially on busier nights, as wait times can extend, and the box office stops selling tickets at a set time.
- Take advantage of the Monster Midway while waiting for your group or to grab a bite to eat; it offers a break from the scares with campfires and movies.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I skip the line if I purchased tickets online?
Yes, pre-purchasing tickets online allows you to skip the general admission line at the box office. You will still need to enter the pre-purchase/VIP ticket line to pick up your tickets. Be prepared to show your tickets on your phone or print a QR code.
What should I do if I get too scared to finish an attraction?
No refunds are offered if you get scared and wish to leave an attraction early, as the purpose is to scare you. If you leave early, they consider their job done promptly.
Are the attractions accessible for individuals with disabilities?
Most walking attractions are not wheelchair accessible, and assistive walking devices are discouraged due to terrain. The hayride may accommodate wheelchairs; contact them for details. Inquire with a parking attendant for shuttle assistance if needed.
Will the actors touch me?
They have a 'no touch' policy. While actors will not intentionally grab you, accidental contact may occur due to dim lighting and close proximity. They emphasize that guests should not touch the actors or props.
Are photos allowed inside the haunted attractions?
No flash photography or video recording is allowed inside the haunted houses. Flashing lights can ruin the experience for other guests and hurt the actors' eyes. There are designated areas for group photos.
