The event has been going strong for about 12 years. It was developed as an alternative to traditional events to show kids and adults that dark woods aren't really full of ghosts and goblins. We attract a lot of families, especially those with younger kids. Most have never even considered taking walking in the woods at night. In the end, they are amazed by what they can see and hear!

THANK YOU!
