Is The Howling Haunted Trail scary?
Yes! This haunt is not for the faint of heart or youngsters. We pride ourselves in giving each victim a frightening, fun time. If you get too scared once on the trail, please alert one of our cast members, and they will escort you from the haunt.
Is there an age limit?
We strongly recommend age 13+ on the trail due to the scare factors on the trail. Teens under the age of 16 must be accompanied by an adult. No exceptions. All victims- I mean guests- must sign a waiver before entering the trail.
How long does it take to go through the trail?
Each group is different. Some victims take longer than others. Plan for a 25-35 minute minimum upon entering the trail.
What if it rains? Do we get our money back?
No. All sales are final. The Howling Haunted Trail is a fundraiser for Adopt-A-Pet. Once tickets are purchased, all funds go to this non-profit organization. We are in Michigan, so dress according to the weather.
How many people can go into the trail at one time?
The smaller the group, the better the experience. Therefore, we limit groups to 6 victims. If your group is larger than 6, we'll do our best to send each group back-to-back.
How do I buy tickets for The Howling Haunted Trail, and do you accept cash?
Tickets can be purchased securely online through our website or directly at the gate on event nights. We accept cash and major credit cards at our ticket booth, beer tent, and merchandise stands for your convenience.
Are cast members allowed to touch me?
No. Here at The Howling Haunted Trail, our characters keep their hands to themselves, and we expect our victims to do the same. Anyone touching will be escorted off the grounds.
Can I take pictures or videos?
No. Once on the grounds, any and all recording is strictly prohibited. Anyone found taking photos or video will be escorted off the grounds.
If I buy tickets online, do I still have to wait in line?
Once you arrive, proceed to Admissions and check in. Victims must then wait until it is your turn and can pass the time by visiting our midway, which includes beer tent, fire pits, corn hole and games, D&W Food Truck and plenty of seating. There is no waiting in line at The Howling Haunted Trail!
Do you have a concession stand?
We offer candy, snacks, and non-alcoholic drinks for sale, along with adult beverages for our victims 21+ for an additional cost.
Do you offer refunds or exchanges?
