Voted Wisconsin’s Scariest Haunted House year after year.
Now in our 14th year we offer 7 haunts covering over 40 acres with a large indoor cue and concessions area. Returning again this year is the Grimm Reaper Railway and “Terror Treatment”. Terror Treatment is an enhanced haunt experience you can only purchase for someone else and only online in prior to your haunt experience with us, but it is a secret. On the Grimm Reaper Railway you have never experienced a train ride like this one. In addition to the Grimm Reaper Railway this year our guests will enjoy 2 Themed Haunted Houses, one of America’s most unique Hayrides, with the Midwest’s Largest Vortex Tunnel, A Pine Forest Trail, a mind bending maze, a Haunted Corn Maze all for one price. Another exciting attraction is our “Zombie Expedition”. In this attraction guests embark on custom designed wagons for a nearly half mile trek through seven meticulously built scenes from America’s favorite Zombie show taking out zombies with paint balls. Forget about those zombie shooting galleries you have seen before. This is 15 minutes of high energy, adrenaline pumping fun. Charge your smart phone and grab your friends and set out beyond the safety of the city lights to experience the Terror and Fun of Wisconsin’s Largest Scream Park.
Built by people who are passionate about what they do and are committed to giving you the best haunt experience possible.

Reviews
Went with friends Saturday and had a blast. We got the fast pass and were moving along pretty much the whole time which was nice. For 10 bucks extra you cant go wrong. A couple of the actors got me bad especially in the shizo one. Place is surprisingly big. Definitely one of the better Halloween attractions around here.

Good Halloween night option if you want something that’s actually going to eat up a chunk of your evening. There are a lot of different sections and the costumes/effects are better than I expected. Bit of a hit and miss, but out of the six attractions I really liked 4 of them, so that's a win in my book. The atmosphere is really good and it doesn’t feel like the same scare repeated 40 times. And dress warm. I was dumb. It gets COLD.

Went on Friday around 7 and somehow there was basically no line. The wagon ride drops you at the back of the farm, so you work your way through everything back toward the entrance. Kind of a cool way to do it. The cemetery was probably my favorite part. Actually creepy and not just people jumping out yelling and being annoying. Great time

We’ve done a bunch of haunted attractions around Wisconsin and this one is easily near the top. It’s LONG in a good way! There were like a dozen different spots to explore and all of them were different. You definitely feel like you got your money’s worth. Some parts are scarier than others, but it's all fun. Kind of long waits without the fast pass.

Visited this haunt 5th after 4 other haunted houses in the area. Other haunts were around 25 mins long with a 2 hour wait in the cold for 25$. This one is out in the middle of nowhere (creepy) in the dark. We waited around 30 mins to get in not bad and the haunt was around an hour long and included a ride through the woods, shooting zombies, a maze, graveyard, bonfires, wooded trails and small buildings outside. For the same price as other haunted houses this was the best value for length and scare factor. Cant wait to go again next year. The only complaint is groups are too close together, ruined some scares for us. But dont waste your time going to other haunts where waiting in line is 5x longer than the actual haunt.

OMG!!! It was like in a different world all together. The haunts were scary and the scenes in it were quite detailed. Complete with props and special effects. Loved everything and I will definitely recommend.

It was totally amazing. You need to go over all the event to get the full worth of the money spent. And, please get a fast pass. The actors were professional and knew the business of scaring people really well. Some were scary and made our hearts pound. Some made us laugh and jump. Overall, a great experience.

They should probably post that their train is broken down and that someone cut the line on their air hoses for shooting zombies. Drove 2 1/2 hours for this, was slightly disappointed.
