The Haunted Forest at Panic Point

Visitors encounter dozens of monsters across five haunted attractions, including a half-mile featured forest trail filled with scenes such as the Sanatorium, Funeral Home, and Graveyard. Guests can also navigate the foggy settlement of the Dark Trail, take a tractor-drawn hayride investigating alien sightings, and brave two haunted corn mazes. Between attractions, the Midway offers fire pits, photo stations, carnival games, and food.
