Arrival

Beyond
These Gates

Gravel underfoot, fog in the headlights, screaming somewhere off to your left. Five ways to lose the night — all on the same grounds.

Zombie Purge
Monster Bus

The lift-kitted monster bus rolls first. Grab a paintball gun and hunt actual zombies from the windows as the bus pushes into the dark.

All-New Haunted House for 2026

Knightmares
Kurse

Do you have what it takes to enter the walls of the Kurse? Brave enough to see what lurks at every turn and behind the next door? Enter if you dare — next-level animatronics, a vortex tunnel, and thrills never before seen at Acres of Madness. Similar scare intensity to Hells Gate, with completely different scenes. Be first through the new haunt this season.

Extreme Haunted House

Hells
Gate

Hell around every corner, and no easy way back out once the gate swings shut behind you. Our extreme haunt — go in loud, come out quiet.

Two More Ways to Lose the Night

Chapter 04

Riot Smash Room

Sledgehammer in hand, a car that has it coming, and nobody telling you to stop. Glass, sheet metal, and whatever noise you need to make.

Chapter 05

Hearse Ride

Climb into the coffin, let the lid settle, and take the slow ride out through the fog. Lid position negotiable.

See Everything

On the grounds: balloon artists, jugglers, face painting, tarot readings, and more. Food trucks rotate through the season — follow Acres of Madness on Facebook for who’s there each night. Every attraction requires a ticket (buy online or at the ticket trailer on-site).
