Frequently Asked Questions

Is Haunted Trails scary?

Not at all! Haunted Trails has been entertaining families for over 30 years and providing affordable family fun in the southwest suburbs! Their park offers a year-round “Halloween-themed” experience, but without all the “scares” or scary-looking characters.

Is there an admission fee?

There is no admission fee. Haunted Trails offers “pay as you play” fun. You may purchase FUN Cards to use on all of their rides, attractions and games at your leisure. Be sure to check their specials page for great deals on food and fun!

Do I have to pay for parking?

No. Parking is free for all guests.

Are you open year-round?

Yes! The Monster Tomb Game Room and Charmin Charley’s Restaurant remain open year-round for Birthday parties, group outings and family fun. Their Outdoor Attractions are open April thru October (or sooner, weather permitting).
