Knott’s Spooky Farm Delivers a Family-Friendly Take on Halloween Select Dates Starting September 26.

Families can join in on the ghoulish fun as the park transforms with themed décor and wicked fun around every corner. Halloween-themed activities, including trick-or-treating, a lineup of original shows, costume contests and pumpkin decorating await.

New this fall season, join Charlie Brown, Snoopy and their friends for Spooktivities, a host of games, music, spooky storytelling and more for ghouls of all ages. Knott's Spooky Farm will be taking place in the daytime, Thursdays through Sundays, September 26 through October 31, plus Columbus Day

Trick or Treat! There are a total of 9 Treat stops this year. Kids can participate in a memorable trick-or-treating experience along Ghost Town's Main Street, Schoolhouse Road and Gold Mine Trail. During trick-or-treating, kids will interact with an array of spooky but friendly shopkeepers as little ones have the opportunity to show off their festive Halloween costumes.

The Livery Stable will be hosts once again to the Creepy Critters of Calico. Spiders, bugs and more await at our Creepy Critters Corral. Whimsical jack-o-lanterns surround Calico Park as it changes into an enchanting Pumpkin Patch location for families to enjoy the season's atmosphere with photo ops. Guests can get in the spirit by decorating their very own themed cookie or pumpkin right in the heart of Ghost Town. Miniature pumpkins or Halloween cookies will be available for a nominal fee. Also in Calico Park, Snoopy and the Gang host Spooktivities. A full day of Halloween fun awaits all ages with games, music, spooky stories and more.

Be sure to be dressed in your Halloween Costume! Besides all the amazing spots to take some super cute Halloween pictures, little ghouls are also encouraged to strut their stuff and show off their Halloween Costumes this season at Snoopy’s Spooktacular Costume Party at the Calico Mine Stage.

Shows! The Bob Baker Marionette Theatre Show is back with their Halloween-themed show at Birdcage Theatre. These peculiar puppeteers will amaze all with a spooky puppet show that will have little ones and adults entertained all day. Over on the Calico Mine Stage, Krazy Kirk and the Hillbillies are back for high-energy country music concert and comedy for all to enjoy!

More Halloween Overlays! Timber Mountain Log Ride will celebrate the Halloween Hootenanny creating a family-friendly seasonal twist to this park favorite. Every year the citizens of Timber Mountain invite the mysterious creatures that live out in the woods to join them as they celebrate the season at the Halloween Hootenanny. The ride's interior features surprise after surprise as guests venture past the Calico Coffin Creeper Band, the town's Green Witch and splash down Skull Mountain through a labyrinth of jack-o-lanterns – all set around an original song performed by Krazy Kirk and the Hillbillies.

The fun continues for little ones at the Calico Mine Ride as it undergoes a fantastical transformation into a candy wonderland! Grab a seat to explore the caves and caverns for candy confections but keep an eye out for the elusive Pink Fairy.

Last but not least… Head down to the Gold Mine Trail just beyond Ghostrider, there you will find carnival games and ghoulish treats to enjoy that are specially curated for this spooky season.

Tips for visiting Spooky Farm: Try to arrive to the park upon opening. It’s cooler for your child if they are wearing a costume, less crowded and will allow you more time to enjoy the rest of the park after you have completed the Halloween activities you are interested in. Reminder: Park hours are shorter than normal due to the Scary Farm event that happens in the evenings. I would suggest bringing a change of clothes if your childs costume is hot or not comfortable to enjoy rides in and to remember to bring comfy shoes. If you don’t want to carry around extra clothes, there are lockers available to rent next to Guest Services.
