FAQ
1) How does this Work/What should I expect?
After your drive through Poolesville, you will be parked in a huge Hay Field. Look for and walk towards the ticket/waiver lines where you will pay, sign your life away, and/or turn in your prepaid tickets. At this point you will receive a #'ed sticker, and walk to the Front Circle and wait until your # is called. There is much to do while you wait for your #, or you can enjoy an amazing bon-fire.
2) Is there a long line for the MHF?
We tried to do away with lines and create a comfortable waiting area, with music and live entertainment. On the last couple of Fridays and Saturdays you may be waiting for at least an hour.
3) How Long is the trail?
There are 2 trails, each with 13 scenes and each are around 20 minutes.
4) What else is there to do?
Haunted Hayrides, Haunted Bus, Zip-Lines, Giant Swings, Ghost Hunts, Fortune Tellers, Death Jumps, and MORE - including Food!
5) What if it rains?
We will post on our website and phone number that we are closed for that night by 4:00pm. It may be raining where you are and not in Poolesville, so give us a call.
6) What if it rains, and I purchased a ticket online?
If we close due to rain, then we will open your ticket for use on another night. If you do not come because of rain and we are open.... consider it a donation!
7) What is the suggested Age?
We get all ages coming through. Some adults cry and some kids just laugh it up. We do feel that the trail can be scary and to use some common sense about whether you or your children are up for the trail. It is intended to terrify.
8) Do the Trails change year to year?
Every year we make some changes, tweak some existing scenes and add a few surprises. This is all top secret so we can't mention specifics here, come check out what's new this year.
9) Is this worth my Time & Money?
We believe that there is no other Haunt in the area that comes close to offering the screams, the atmosphere, and overall experience. The reason there are so many other "Haunted Woods" is because we have created the ultimate October event. Seeing is believing - you've got to check this one out!
