Haunted housesTrails & hayridesGhost toursNot too scary
Hayrides are the thing around Trenton. The scariest is Farm of Horrors at Schaefer Farms in Flemington: 200 acres, a 45-minute Hayride of Horror, a cemetery trail with open graves, a zombie cornfield and the CarNevil of Chaos. It's 13 and up. FYI: they give a specific GPS address (1051 Flemington Whitehouse Road), so use that one. Over in Pennsylvania, there are more haunted hayrides in Feasterville and Warrington. If you'd rather do coasters, Six Flags Great Adventure runs Fright Fest through Nov 1 for $80, and it isn't recommended for kids under 13.
The oddball is Dracula's Lair: A Halloween Haunted House Experience in New Hope, where the Roxey Ballet puts live dance inside a haunted house walk-through. Ballet. In a haunted house. It runs Oct 23 to Oct 31. For a quieter night, Doylestown Haunts Ghost Tour 2026 is a walking tour of town history and ghost stories. Plan ahead, though: they say it's sold out the past five years, so reserve early.
