Haunted Forest is Friday and Saturday, October 25-26, 7:00-10:00 p.m. in the Backcountry Wilderness Area. A dry creek bed turns into a walk of terror and the darkness of the forest hides who or what is in the shadows. There are no walls to protect you from the horrors that lurk, and no roof to keep out the howling winds. Recommend for ages 10 and older, parental discretion is advised.
