Grant's Farm is welcoming guests and ghouls for its Halloween Drive-Thru Experience at the Farm! Upon entry, each vehicle with children inside will receive a complimentary bag of assorted candy from the Storybook Sweets gift shop.
As you check in at the parking lot, you'll be guided through the property to explore the Tiergarten, where they'll be transported to a medieval castle all from the comfort of your vehicle. Guests will encounter spiders, witches, bats and a few of the farm's animals, including goats, llamas, cattle and horses. From there, guests drive through Deer Park to see the mystical world that lies beyond the shrieking trees. Visitors will be steered through more than eight haunted themes such as Sleepy Hollow, a haunted archeological dig, a spooky campground, a graveyard and an Area 51-inspired alien scene.
Guests can upgrade their experience by purchasing a package of additional treats and experiences, such as the Tricks 'n Treats Package, Spooktacular Package and Light-Up Toys package.
This drive-through experience will be held Thursday through Sunday until October 31. Advance tickets are required. Tickets start at $40.
