Ideal viewing is after dusk starting in mid October through November 1st from the paved walkways and sidewalks.  For safety please refrain from coming onto the wrap around porch due to the number of cables and controls spread throughout the scenes.

The ship docks October 1st and scenes begin going up the first full weekend in October with substantial completion by mid October.  Then, new scenes are developed and new pieces are introduced into the scenes daily.  Unlike a traditional haunted house with tours, our display is open to the public at all times and completely viewable from the sidewalk or street.  Visitors are always welcome to view the scenes any time of day or evening by walking on the sidewalks or viewing from the warmth of their car.  All scenes are electrified and lit at night starting at sunset.  If you see any of the build staff outside, feel free to say hello. We love meeting the community! They may even offer you a guided tour of the porch – if you ask like a pirate!
