Come dressed up in your costumes, meet our equines on the Sanctuary, walk the Haunted Trail and get a little spooked.
Three spooky evenings (6 PM - 9 PM) to walk the Haunted Trail:
Sunday, October 16th
Saturday, October 22nd
Friday, October 28th
We do not set an age range for this event. This is completely up to parental discretion. We have families of all ages attend our haunted trail. We do ask our performers to be mindful of age so all can enjoy it.
The trail is about a half-mile long with different paths to take that are more spooky than another. So you may walk the trail more than once and be as brave as you seek.
Hay Burr Inn Equine Rescue & Sanctuary is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization. This is a donation-based fundraiser to help with the care and upkeep of the horses and donkey. There are NO tickets to purchase in advance to enter the event. Your DONATIONS are greatly appreciated for us to continue to rescue equines and give them a second chance to enjoy life and just be a horse.
Our equines are older, injured, or retired horses that were either owner surrenders or rescued from the kill pen; these are not riding horses. They are so wonderful and love attention.
We are in need of help to set up the trail and help at the event including actors.
