Harvest of Horror
September 30 – October 29
Harvest of Horror is back every Friday and Saturday from 7p – 11p in St. Augusta. This year’s Harvest of Horror begins with a hayride through the fields of St. Augusta. If you make it through alive, you will be terrorized in the timbers where “life forms” lurk in the forest. If you’re lucky, you will be thrust into the darkness of a corn field where creepy beings exist. Next, you will be plunged into a tube of terror where you will encounter several beings that are not happy you are visiting. If they let you out, you will visit the Murder Home… REDRUM? Will you make it out??? If yes, you will be plunged into the total darkness of a haunted house where you will encounter bone chilling vermin. Still alive… then come back into the forest where mutants will gladly welcome your visit. Is your heart still pumping? If yes, come and find your way through the zombie room where tall and elusive beings live. Try not to be plucked out and dragged into the darkness and consumed! Come… if you have the guts! More info here.
The Harvest of Horror is open rain or shine. Tickets are sold until 10:45pm.
