ABOUT THE HAUNTED ATTRACTIONS:

😱Brimstone Haunted Hayride 

The Brimstone Farm was once a prosperous family farm. Now, it is a place full of long-lost memories, stories, and curses. Many horrors have been reported in these fields but not many are willing to talk about the events that occur in the corn. Come see what’s waiting for you around every twist and turn. 

😱Forgotten Forest 

This is no ordinary woods walk. The Forgotten Forest is a place shrouded in mystery. Many people have gone searching for answers to the unnatural events that occur in and around the forest, but none have ever returned. Only the bravest should dare enter these trees and IF you make it back out, you will not be the same as when you went in. 

😱NEW: Psychosis 

Around every dark corner awaits disturbing scenes of horror that will pull you further from reality. Get the yell scared out of you as you wind through the dark maze-like pathways trying to find a way out. Or surrender to the darkness and join the horror in a permanent state of Psychosis.

The Forgotten Forest is high intensity. It is a quarter mile walking path that usually takes about 20 minutes to walk through. The Haunted Hayride is more family friendly with a lower scare factor (but you’ll still be spooked). It takes about 25 minutes to ride through.
