Two Terrifying Haunted Houses
Dead Fall Trail
Dead Fall Trail unleashes havoc over 1/3 mile, where guests fall prey to cruel creatures in derelict woods. An evil entity, awakened in Louisiana’s pine-hill forests, demands blood to feed its malevolent spirit. The desecrated boneyard has unleashed a menagerie of tormented souls lurking in the shadows, ready to ensnare the unwary. Dark Woods Haunted Attractions offers an immersive experience with character actors, detailed costuming, realistic sets, and Hollywood-style special effects. Will you survive the nightmare of carnage and ensnaring spirits?
Alice’s Madhouse in 3D: Descent
Leave reality behind and step into the terrifying 3D world of Alice’s Madhouse. Plunge into Alice’s fractured mind, where the bleak asylum merges with twisted Wonderland. Overwhelming encounters with the Mad Hatter and White Rabbit set the tone for a breathless, chaotic experience. Navigate the disorienting maze, where faces seem to watch from the shadows. But the ultimate terror is the monstrous Jabberwocky. Dare to uncover the horror within. With each step, uncover Alice’s grim past and face lurking demons. Will you succumb to insanity or emerge forever changed?
Add-On Attraction
Are you ready to be Buried Alive?
“Buried Alive!” is a heart-pounding virtual reality burial simulator. This is a personal, solo, extreme horror experience that will push your senses to the limit. Get ready for an unforgettable journey ending in your final resting place, with a touch of dark humor. Lie down in our coffin, feel the lid seal shut above you, and be plunged into TOTAL DARKNESS. Your family and friends will watch your every reaction on the Buried Alive “Casket CAM” as you endure your own funeral. Every fall, Dark Woods unleashes nightmares that rule the darkness. The bloody, disturbing past of Hickory Ridge seeps beyond the veil, waiting for you.
