(
Twists, turns, and terror will have you with a death grip,
Pack your bags for Witch Way Road Trip!
Do you hear the cackle echoing in the night?
It’s going to be a chilling ride—you better hold on tight!
So BOO-ckle up for the twists, turns, and terrors you’ll encounter along the way as we take off on a wild and wacky Witch Way Road Trip at the 60th Annual Children’s Museum Guild’s Haunted House.
Eerie Avenue
After piling in the station wagon, you’re off! Heading out of the neighborhood, you’ll notice shadowy figures peeking out of windows and houses that appear alive. Maybe that’s from all the unsettling Halloween decor…?
Hazardous Highway
As you merge onto the interstate, watch out for skeletons driving recklessly, damaged cars, and—yikes!—bright orange construction cones.
Ghastly Gas Station
It’s time to fuel up, but the super-creepy station attendant is having trouble with the old, rusty gas pump. While you wait, head inside the convenience store for snacks—the fingers cooking on the hot dog roller are just about ready!
Eyesore Attractions
You’ll need photos to remember your trip, so snap some pics of the World’s Largest Ball of Earwax and one of the largest doll collections.
Scary Stables
This barn may look peaceful but the many farm tools up in the rafters and the stalls occupied by possessed animals are anything but.
And what’s that terrible noise coming from the cornfield?
Bug and Breakfast Motel
It’s been a long day and you’re ready for some shut-eye. But rest won’t come easy with hundreds of roaches crawling around this run-down room.
Rotting Corpse Campground
Maybe you’ll have better luck sleeping in a tent. Wait—is that Bigfoot hiding among the pine trees?
Dead End Diner
Judging by the scary cook in the kitchen, it seems like the poor reviews of the Dead End Diner were correct—that plate of spaghetti does look an awful lot like worms.
Decomposing Desert
You’re so close!
You just have to make it past the skeletal remains of various animals. And the snacking vultures. Hope they’re not still hungry…
Sinister Sidewalk
Get ready to have a little fun! Unfortunately, “winning” a carnival game gets you a scary prize, the Ferris wheel is completely unsafe, and you probably don’t want to hear what the fortune teller has to say.
Please note: The dizzying walkway tunnel is now fully accessible for visitors using wheelchairs, walkers, and strollers!
Boneyard Beach
You’ve finally arrived! Time to kick back and…
…try to avoid rotting fish.
And dead sea creatures.
And skeletons with missing limbs.
Oh, and the giant shark hose razor-sharp teeth are dangerously close to your head.
This beach sure isn’t as relaxing as you’t thought it would be.
Bootique Concessions
Whew!
That was quite the adventure. But it doesn’t have to end! Pull off the road trip and into the Bootique, featuring a family photo op, an interactive travel map, and souvenir shopping. If you're ready for another round of scare and fright, repeater tickets are available in the Bootique (valid same day only).
