Midway Wicked Woods
Unguided outdoor haunted trail with wagon transport
About
Prepare for a spine-chilling outdoor Halloween adventure at Midway Wicked Woods. This attraction transports visitors on a wagon to the entrance of a haunted trail, where they are left to navigate the darkness unguided. Brave terrifying buildings, a 600-foot dark maze, and the disorienting 'Tunnel of Terror.' Don't miss the 3D Clown Room or the Haunted Graveyard, where the dead are never truly at rest. Keep an eye out for Wicked Willie during the Harvest Moon!
