Tentative Itinerary (all times and plans subject to change):

  • 5:00 to 5:15 pm – Meet near the ticket booth for registration.
  • 5:15 to 6:30 pm — Lights on tour of the Haunted Mansion (The Madness, The Legend and Dante’s’ Waxworks)
  • 7:00 pm – Be part of the first group (or groups) to tour all the haunts.
  • After the tour, meet at the snack bar for a hot dog or hamburger, French-fries, soda pop and dessert.
  • Your event price also entitles you to two more trips through all the attractions on the night of the event until closing, time permitting.

This year’s Haunted Mansion attraction themes:

  • The Madness!: The year is 1950. The asylum is testing a new treatment on the most insane patients. Unfortunately there are side effects… you will participate in ways like NEVER BEFORE!
  • The Legend: a true story. The infamous outlaw Elmer McCurdy’s body was found hanging in an amusement park fun house in 1977. How did he get there? Find out for yourself.
  • Dantes’ Waxworks: The wax museum is open, but the exhibits have a mind of their own. Careful not to have a “melt-down” inside this “Night at the Museum” – gone evil!
