Phobia Haunted Trail

Visitors navigate an outdoor walking trail through the woods that combines live scare actors, strobe lights, and fog machines across two distinct attractions. Guests confront nightmare clowns in the FreakShow woods before facing psychological tests and darkness inside The Phobia Institute trail. The entire interactive walk takes about thirty minutes to complete.
