For an extra special experience, register at the Gift Shop for a wagon ride through the deep, dark woods with our ghostly driver! Tickets $6.50 per person and are first come, first served. Please purchase wagon ride tickets in the Gift Shop while you are at Spooktacular.
- NOTE: For the safety of the horses and the animals that share the forest with us, dogs are not allowed to join wagon rides. Rides do not include additional lighting or displays. Depending on weather, a tractor may be used to pull the wagon.
There are no “jump scares” at Spooktacular, but we recommend you come prepared with flashlights to help navigate dark areas. Furry friends are welcome to attend the event, excluding wagon rides. We kindly ask that dogs remain on-leash at all times and are kept away from Mountsberg’s live animals in the animal barn, snake room, and Raptor Centre.
