For three decades, the Double M Haunted Hayride has been scaring anyone willing to set foot on its property.
What You Need To Know
- Tickets and snacks must be purchased in advance online
- The performers will be keep their distance from visitors
- It’s open now through Halloween weekend
"We're going to entertain them a little bit, as much as we can," said owner Leo Martin, the mastermind behind all the thrills and chills.
But instead of a hayride, visitors will be driving themselves through it this year. The drive-thru experience is one of the changes put in place due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Cars will be stopping at 13 different stages. Some have animations, while most of them still have live performers. They'll keep their distance, but that doesn't mean they won't scare people.
Martin says it’s a safe way for families to still come out and enjoy Halloween.
“We’re booked. We’re sold out this whole weekend, which is unheard of for us this early in the season," Martin said. "Usually not until the end of October is when we start selling out.”
Everything is done online this year, from purchasing tickets and snacks to receiving information and guidelines. It’s open now through Halloween weekend.
