Your hayride time is the approximate time that your hayride begins. It is recommended that you arrive approximately 30 minutes prior to your hayride time.
What happens when I get there?
When you arrive at Headless Horseman Hayrides, you go to the Ticket Window to receive your tickets (inhouse or online reservations must go to the Ticket Windows). You then continue through a Security Line and enter our Midway. You will go on the Hayride first. The Hayride will drop you off at the Lunar Motel Haunted House, you will continue thru Glutton's Slaughter House, Dark Harvest Cornmaze, Night Shade Greenhouse, The Feeding. This will exit near the last Haunted House and food eateries.
Each attraction leads to the next. When you exit the Dahila Bloods, the last haunted house, you will be back in the midway area where you began. DURING THE HEIGHT OF THE SEASON, THE ENTIRE EVENING WILL TAKE APPROXIMATELY 3 HOURS TO COMPLETE. COME EARLY IN THE SEASON TO AVOID LINES.
When is the first hayride of the night?
The first hayride of the night is at approximately 7 pm.
When is the last hayride of the night?
The last hayride of the night can leave any time between 9pm and 11pm, depending upon on the time of our last reservation for the evening.
I have an 11 o'clock hayride. Will I get to see everything?
Yes, you will be able to go through all of the attractions. However, you should arrive early if you would like to see the Side Show or visit the gift shops. The park closes after the last group has exited the last Haunted House.
I want to go on a hayride when it's really dark. What's the best time?
Since we are only open in the evenings (when it's dark) any hayride time is fine. Also, please note that we do not discern between dark, dark dark, really dark, and ultra dark. It's nighttime, its DARK. P.S. The sets along the hayride trail are professionally lite.
What are the times for the Side Show?
Performances are several times throughout the night. The first show is generally at 8 pm. All show times will be displayed on the stage.
How long will it take to do everything??
Approximately 2 ½ to 3 hours. Anticipate 3 hours on any Friday or Saturday night during October.
I have a reservation; do I still have to wait in line?
Unfortunately, yes.
Why do I need to make a reservation in advance?
Making a reservation secures you a space on whatever night you would like to come. Without a reservation, we cannot guarantee you admission into Headless Horseman.
How early should I arrive for my hayride?
You should arrive approximately 20 minutes early in the beginning of the season, and 40 minutes early during October.
How many people fit on a hayride?
Approximately 30 - 35.
What happens in case of inclement weather?
In the event that Headless Horseman Hayrides closes due do to inclement weather and the safety of our guests, the decision is made at approximately 4pm and POSTED ON OUR WEBSITE. Please do not call us early. We do not make a decision until 4pm.
If you've had to cancel the evening due to inclement weather, are the haunted houses still open?
No, we will close our entire facility for that evening.
How can I find out if you are closed due to inclement weather?
A closing announcement will be posted on our website and our phone system. The most efficient way to find out is to check our website. We will make every effort to reschedule your reservation. If your reservation cannot be rescheduled, tickets will be issued at the end of the season for the following year. SORRY, THERE ARE NO REFUNDS.
How come there are no rides available when I call to make a reservation, but there are rides available online?
Our in-house ride times and our online ride times are two separate databases. When you call our reservation department, we cannot access our online ride times and likewise, the online reservation system cannot access the in-house ride times. So it is possible for one to be sold out and for the other to still have availability.
What form of payment do you accept at the ticket window?
We accept cash as well as Visa, Matercard and Discover. We have an ATM machine on site.
Do you accept credit cards?
Yes, we accept Visa, Mastercard and Discover at the ticket window and in all our gift shops.
Is it really scary???
We certainly hope so!

No, if you decide to exit any attraction early we will not grant a refund or re-entry
