Tips & Advice
- Purchase tickets online in advance, as they are not sold on-site and specific dates can sell out.
- Consider purchasing a 'Screeem Express' pass for one-time front-of-line access to all five haunted houses to minimize wait times.
- If the scares are too intense, purchase a 'Monster B'Gone' necklace at the park entrance to signal to monsters that you prefer not to be scared.
- Check the park's specific hours for each day of the week, as Friday, Saturday, and Sunday hours vary, with a special schedule on October 12th.
- Be aware that GPS systems may provide incorrect addresses; use 'Canobie Lake Park' and verify the address is on North Policy Street, not Sunset Road or Bus Rd.
