Ah, the most classic Halloween experience of all… a good old-fashioned Haunted House. It’s the season to experience both spooks and thrills and there’s no better way than grabbing some Knott’s Scary Farm discount tickets.
To be perfectly honest, I am terrified of haunted houses, but my husband and teens absolutely love them and head to Knott’s Scary Farm and Universal Studios without me yearly. I stick to Disneyland’s more happy Halloween event!
After dark on some particularly scary nights in September and October, Knott’s Berry Farm transforms into a land of haunts. It’s the largest Halloween experience in all of Southern California and truly unlike anything else!
There are both haunted mazes and attractions, that’s right you’re not even safe from creepy creatures while you wait in line to ride one of their epic roller coasters. Keep in mind, this is no place for your littlest kiddos. The recommended age is 13+.
Of course, this awesome fall experience comes at a cost a little above your usual haunted house. We’ve got some great ideas to help you save on tickets though!
