NATURE NIGHTMARES

Halloween at the Kreher Preserve & Nature Center now has two faces… Nature Nightmares, the scary sister to Halloween Enchanted Forest, and it is finally here! Nature Nightmares will be on October 27th and 28th from 7:30 p.m. to 11:00 p.m. 

Nature Nightmares is a haunted hike through the pitch-black forest of the KPNC – a hike like you’ve never experienced before. With evil creatures lurking in the shadows and frightening entities waiting for wary visitors, we dare you to come and conquer the darkness!

For this event, the trails will be lit dimly or not at all with periodic horror scenes, spooky sounds, and thematic lights, including some strobe lights.  Volunteer cast members will be stationed throughout the forest with costumes and props to engage and frighten visitors.

Hikes depart from the main pavilion at 7-minute intervals beginning at 7:30 p.m.  The last hike of the night will depart at 11:00 p.m.

Tickets are $12/person and participants must be at least 13 years of age (anyone under 19 must be accompanied by an adult).  Tickets are available for pre-sale as well as on-site on the day of the event. Click here to purchase your tickets online. This event will be postponed or canceled in the event of inclement weather. Notifications will be posted via the KPNC website and Facebook page.

Wear comfortable walking shoes and bring a low-light flashlight. The trail is NOT lighted. Please do not shine your light on our actors’ faces. Our actors will not touch you or grab you.
