2026 season
Frequently Asked Questions
Tickets, rules, what's included, and how a night here actually runs.
Tickets & Pricing
How much are tickets?
General admission is $32 per person and includes the haunted corn maze. Military (active or veteran with ID) is $25, for the service member only, not their family. Groups can also buy a whole wagon for $960 (see the wagon rate question below). Cash only, at the window.
What is the wagon rate, and how does it work?
It is one flat price of $960 for an entire wagon, which seats 35–40 people. You pay once instead of buying tickets one at a time, and your whole group rides out together on a wagon of its own rather than being split up and seated with strangers. At 40 riders that works out to about $24.00 a person; at 35 it is about $27.43.
How do I get the wagon rate? Can I book one ahead?
The wagon rate is sold only at the ticket window on the night, in cash, like every other ticket. There is no way to reserve or pay for one in advance. Come as a group, ask for the wagon rate at the window, and pay the one price. It guarantees your group a wagon to itself, not a departure time, so you still join the line like everyone else. Everyone on the wagon still needs a signed waiver, and anyone under 14 still needs an adult riding with them.
Do you take cards?
Cash only at the ticket window. Nancy’s Fried Dough takes cards, but bring cash as a backup for the other vendors.
Do you offer group or kids’ pricing?
No group rates and no kids’ pricing. Everyone occupies a seat on the wagon.
Can I buy tickets online or reserve a time?
No. Tickets are sold at the window on the night, first come, first served. There are no reservations and no guaranteed departure times.
Safety & Rules
Can I wear a costume or mask?
No. This is for the safety of guests and staff and isn’t negotiable.
Can I bring a backpack or a large bag?
No. Backpacks and large purses or bags are not allowed on the attraction. Bring only what fits in a pocket or a small handbag.
Is there security screening at the entrance?
Yes. All guests are required to go through a metal detector before entering.
Can I touch the actors?
No. Contact with an actor means removal from the property by security and a call to the Monroe County Sheriff.
Can I take photos or video during the ride?
No flash photography during the ride. It blinds actors who’ve acclimated to the dark, which is a real fall risk. Dropped phones also don’t survive the field.
Do I need to sign a waiver?
Yes. New York State insurance requirements for working farms require a signed waiver for everyone who enters. Adults sign for anyone under 16 in their group. Waivers are available at the door, or you can print one ahead of time to save time in line.
Is the attraction wheelchair accessible?
Guests who can be lifted to a wagon seat can ride; wheelchairs are stored during the ride. The walk-through section is optional, so you can stay on the wagon for the full route if you prefer.
Is this safe for guests with health conditions?
The attraction has a high startle effect and uses strobes and flashing lights. It’s not recommended for guests with heart conditions, who are pregnant, or who have seizure disorders or high anxiety.
How scary is it, really?
Scary enough that we don’t recommend it under 8, and that anyone under 14 needs an adult with them for the whole route. The scares are built on surprise, darkness, and live actors rather than gore.
The Experience
What’s included in admission?
A hayride, one walk-through attraction, and the haunted corn maze at the end, all included with your ticket.
How long does it take?
The full experience takes approximately 35 minutes, not counting the wait in line.
What happens if it rains?
We run in light rain. We don’t run in downpours, and never in thunder and lightning. Cancellation is possible at any time; check the status banner at the top of this site before you drive out.
Do I have to do the walk-through?
No. The walk-through is optional and you can stay on the wagon. The corn maze at the end is optional too, and included either way.
Are you open on Halloween night?
No. We’re closed on Halloween itself. Our last night of the 2026 season is Friday, October 30.
Logistics
What are your hours?
The ticket booth opens approximately 6:15 to 6:30 PM. Last tickets are sold at 10:30 PM Friday and Saturday, and 9:30 PM Sunday. If you have a ticket in hand by then, your ride is guaranteed. The first wagon leaves approximately 7:25 PM (at dusk).
What nights are you open?
Friday, Saturday, and Sunday nights in October. The calendar on the Plan Your Visit page shows every operating night for the 2026 season.
Where are you located?
5161 W Ridge Rd, Spencerport, NY 14559.
Is there food on site?
Yes. Nancy’s Fried Dough, Dukes Donuts, and the barn concession stand.
How old do kids need to be?
Anyone under 14 must be with a paying adult who rides the entire experience. No drop-offs. We don’t recommend the ride for kids under 8, since everyone needs their own seat and there’s no lap-sitting for insurance reasons.
How long is the wait?
Longest on Friday and Saturday nights. Eight to nine tractors run the route at once, leaving the barn every four to five minutes, so the line moves, but plan on making a night of it rather than timing it precisely.
Still not sure?
Plan Your Visit has the calendar, the prices, and directions. Weather can close us at short notice. The banner at the top of every page has the latest.
