NEW! Pumpkin Hill: Legends of the Harvest

Hootin' Holler

In Pumpkin Hill, the townsfolk’s quest for the biggest, most dazzling pumpkins went wildly right—and wrong! Their experimental growing tricks worked too well, producing gigantic gourds so heavy they tipped the old farmhouse right off its foundation.  Now the crooked home is a twisting, tilting wonder filled with dizzying angles, strange sights, and pumpkin mischief around every corner. Step inside… if you dare to walk where nothing’s quite level!

Haunted Hollow Train Engine

NEW! Midnight Conductor Railroad

Daily - Train Boards in Hootin' Holler

Ride with the Midnight Conductor over the misty Loyalhanna Creek and into the shadowy woods, where Halloween stirs to life. Strange lights flicker, shadows creep, and every turn holds a new mystery in the dark.

Grigsby the Monster

Laser Swamp

In Jumpin' Jungle
On your way to explore the Mystic Wilds Jungle Maze, you'll first have to traverse the eerie Laser Swamp filled with otherworldly sounds and lights.
