FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
HOW SCARY IS IT?
Well, that depends on how easily scared you get. Our evening shows are not recommended for children under 10 years of age. We provide weekend matinees for young children and those who are a little apprehensive about the evening show.
ARE THE LINE-UPS LONG?
Line ups can get long on the prime days closer to Halloween. We suggest coming early in the event or you can purchase an advance “Spook Pass” online to ensure priority entry!
IT IS WHEELCHAIR ACCESSIBLE?
The attraction is not 100% wheelchair accessible, however, we are wheelchair friendly. What we mean by that is that the attraction has alternate routes with staff escort to ensure those in a wheelchair can enjoy the attraction.
