Last year I started up a neighborhood haunted trail and it ended up being way more successful than in imagined. We’re starting planning for this year and I thought I’d get some ideas from y’all. Let me know if you have any amazing ideas for a haunted trail.

I setup a semi janky site for it so also take a look if interested.

Only real constraint is that we don’t have tons of power available. Last year was zero power and this year we’re planing on running some long extension cords but it’s definitely a limiting factor.

It also needs to be roughly PG-13. We can go semi hard but need to be able to be able to dial it back as there will be some little ones.

    Chainsaw guy is a must have.

    We try and stick to 3-4 groups of on theme and then some floaters. Chainsaw guy is a floater that can wander the trail and figure out where the scare should be.

    This year I think our sections will be:

    1. scary circus
    2. haunted tunnel
    3. haunted table/dinner
    4. scary campsite

    I’m right in the middle of making the circus tent. It’s 35’ diameter so I’ve got to sew a shit ton of queen size flat sheets and then I’ll paint with the classic red triangle pattern.
