Farm of Horrors
September 21 – October 27
1051 County Route 523, Flemington, NJ
Spend 45 minutes making your way through 200+ acres of fright. It starts with a hayride that scares the “yell” out of you. Then, get dropped off in the middle of nowhere for a treacherous trek through the “trail of terror.” Just when you think you’re almost home, realize the only way back is through the MassAcre Maize. Once that’s over, enter your final nightmare, the Carnevil of Chaos!

The event runs for four full weekends of this year. Ticket sales start each night at 6:30 and the doors open at 7:15 pm.
