Do you dare to enter the domain of the hills? The madness starts with a hayride into the darkness. A dimly lit trail through the woods will lead you past remnants of a previous time, then back to the safety of the modern day. What to expect? The hayride will be bumpy.

I and friends had a blast. For me, the Hayride was the scariest part of the visit.
Haunted Nightmares

What is happening in the Manor? We will give you a sneak preview.... Mabel’s disappearance after staring into her husband’s empty coffin left the manor trembling with unanswered questions. The butcher’s body—gone without trace—haunts the corridors like an unburied secret.
