On-Site Parking

Parking Is Free

Parking is available directly across the street from the attraction entrance — and it’s completely free.

Crossing guards are stationed at the entrance to help guests cross safely from the parking lot to the gates. Look for the staff in vests near the road.

On busy nights (Friday, Saturday, Halloween weekend), the lot fills faster. We recommend arriving by 7:30 PM if you want to park close. Overflow directions will be posted on-site if the primary lot reaches capacity.

If you’re bringing a large group or a chartered bus, contact us in advance so we can advise on drop-off logistics and bus parking.

When You Arrive

What to Expect at the Gate

Have Your Tickets Ready

Tickets purchased through HauntPay can be shown on your phone at the gate — a screenshot works too. If you bought physical or printed tickets, bring those. Gate staff will scan on entry.

Two Entry Queues

There are separate lines for General Admission and Fast Pass. Fast Pass holders get priority access and shorter wait times. Signs at the gate direct you to the correct line.

Midway Before & After

The midway area — food trucks, concessions, coffee, vendor booths, and merch — opens when the gates open and stays active until close. Arrive early to explore before you head into the forest.
