Haunted Trail at Sinnemahoning State Park

It's back! The fifth annual Haunted Trail and All Hallows Eve Celebration returns to Sinnemahoning State Park on Saturday, October 29, 2016, from 4:00-9:00 PM. With new activities for younger kids and new frights for the adults and older kids, this popular Halloween event is bigger and scarier than before. At just $10.00 per carload, this trail is a spook-tacular deal! Admission fee includes haunted trail, hayride, bonfire and more.

The evening of fun begins with activities and games for younger children from 4:00-6:00 PM. Children and their families can create owls, bats, pumpkins and other make-and-take crafts. NEW this year during the family-friendly daylight trail, TRICK-or-TREAT! Kiddies are welcome to dress up in their Halloween costume and trick-or-treat with our ghosts, ghouls and witches. Woodsy Owl, Smokey Bear and Sparky the Firedog will also be there to meet and greet! This Family-Friendly Trail runs 4:00 PM - 6:00 PM.

At 7:00 PM, the "Full-Terror" version of the Haunted Trail opens for older children and adults. Spiders, ghosts, and the creepy chainsaw guy have all returned, plus new frights including a haunted poachers' camp, a glowing hazardous waste spill, an axe-throwing maniac, and more.

A "creepy animals" nature program and a Pumpkin Chunkin' contest will be held from 6:00 to 7:00 PM. Hayrides and a bonfire will run from 4:00-6:00 PM and from 7:00-8:30 PM.

 Refreshments, including hot beverages and baked goods, will be sold by the 7th and 9th grade students of Austin School.
