Cemetery Lane: Immersive Trick-r-Treat Experience 2021

Happy Friday Everybody! Hope you're all ready for a fun Halloween Weekend! In today's update we're going to share with you a brand new event in Southern California that you all should be buying tickets for right now. Seriously, stop reading this, click this link, buy your tickets. 

Written by Gregg Condon

If you follow this site you know we cover a lot of Halloween stuff. Like a LOT. And generally events fall into a few different categories. 

- Events that are about what we expect every year 
- Events that we don't really know a lot about but blow us away
- Events that are not as good as we hoped they'd be (fortunately not any of those this year) 

And finally, there is the rarest of all. An event that we have super high expectations for and that event ends up exceeding those expectations. Such is the case with the all new Cemetery Lane. 

If you read our site you know we don't hold punches for good or bad. And if we really recommend an event, you know you're going to love it. We pride ourselves on that. 

So again, stop reading this, click this link, buy your tickets for this weekend. 

​Now let's head into Cemetery Lane! 
Picture
No surprise, the lighting for this event is amazing.
Picture
We had never been to Heritage Square before, but we'll be back to see it non-Halloween'y!
Picture
Devil and fallen Angel.
Picture
Each house has a different "family" living there, from Witches, to Vampires, Ghosts and all sorts of awesome (but very friendly) neighbors.
Picture
Picture
The actors for this are really what brought the event together. They were simply fantastic.
Picture
Picture
You can dance with some Skeletons
Picture
Visit the Apothecary
Picture
Picture
And of course, wake up the dead

Picture
This is about as scary as Cemetery Lane gets, and that's just what it should be.
Picture
Well, maybe a bit scarier than that, luckily she stayed there.
Picture
A look at the fantastic neighborhood of Cemetery Lane! We really do want to live here.

Fear In 3D and Dark Harvest - Chino, CA

This past weekend we made the drive out to Chino, CA to check out a couple of Halloween events that had received really great word of mouth. Normally we wouldn't make the drive out this far but since we were already in OC, and a lot of the smaller haunts there don't start until this weekend, we figured we'd head inland a bit. 

​And we are sure glad we did! They were both fantastic and worth the visit. 

Fear in 3D

Our first stop was Fear in 3D in Chino Hills. This was our first stop because it began at 5:00pm and would give us a great head-start on our night of Halloween fun. 
Picture
The entrance to the event is on the Trader Joes side of the mall
Picture
Follow the rules!
Picture
Picture
The 3D effects were pretty amazing and were some of the best we've seen.
Picture
Picture

Picture
Picture
Step right up! Get your tickets!
Picture
I love the way this pic turned out!
Picture
Picture
Picture
Picture
Don't pop the balloon!
Picture
Picture
Picture
Which brings us to the exit!
Picture
Oddly enough, this awesome looking thing is the exit. Most people assumed it was the entrance.
Picture
You can even get a 3D picture in the middle of the maze!
We had a blast at Fear in 3D.

For more information on this event, check out their website here. 

Dark Harvest

Our second event on Saturday was just a mile or two from Fear in 3D and was Dark Harvest at Frosty's Forest. This was a full-fledged Halloween fun fair with rides, multiple corn mazes, photo ops, food and much more! 

We arrived a bit early since Dark Harvest didn't begin until 7:00, so we had some time to explore! 
Picture
Welcome to Frosty's!
Picture
Picture
Picture
Ride and Experience tickets are available throughout the pumpkin patch!
Picture
Coaster Credit! (no, I didn't ride)
Picture
A bit of a corn maze preview with some photo ops!
Picture
Picture
Picture
Picture
Candy Land!!
Picture
Mmm, Popcorn!
Picture
Picture
Picture
Picture
They also had Zombie Paintball, but it didn't seem to be open during our visit.
Picture
If we had more time this would have been fun! But we'd probably still be in there. Lol
Picture
Picture
Picture
Picture
Creepy!
Picture
I think whoever this is recognized us. Thanks for greeting us in your creepy corn maze!
Picture
Our video of Dark Harvest. I cut out a bit of the darker spots in the corn maze, but not too many. You can use your phone flashlight in the maze, but we opted not to. We wanted the full effect! 

And I will say, the talent got me twice in here. Which is VERY rare considering how many Halloween events we do every year. But thank you to the ones who did. I always like to get it good at least once a season. =) 
If you're going to experience Dark Harvest, we HIGHLY SUGGEST getting there right at 7:00pm. Meaning, you're in line for Dark Harvest no later than 7:00pm. When we left about 7:45pm or so, the line for Dark Harvest and at the entrance to the Pumpkin patch was huge. 

We had such a great time at Dark Harvest. The corn maze was spectacular, each scene was unique and fun and the talent was amazing.

LA Haunted Hayride 2021 - The Return of Midnight Falls

Last week we finally made it out to the Los Angeles Haunted Hayride and a great return to the town of Midnight Falls. This years event is in a new location, but it seems much bigger this year. 

Written by Gregg Condon
Picture
The event has really outdone itself in creating the fictional town of Midnight Falls and creating a fantastic Halloween festival within that town. And even if you don't want to do the Hayride or the mazes, you can still go into the "town" to enjoy the townsfolks, the shows (featuring the amazing Monte Revolta) and of course lots of food to enjoy. We truly had a great time at this years event. Don't miss it! But get there early, parking in Griffith Park is always "fun". 
Picture
Picture
Our first stop of the night was the Hayride itself. This seemed to be a bit shorter this year length-wise, but scene wise we think there were actually more. There's just more room for the event in this location and it serves the hayride very well. ​​
Picture
Would love to drive through the hayride in this classic pickup!
Picture
We highly recommend the VIP, this can get completely full on weekends.
Picture
Picture
Picture
Lots of amazing show scenes!
Picture
Picture
Picture
And of course, clowns!

Picture
Some fun photo-ops sprinkled throughout the event
Picture
The event also features three mazes, Trick-Or-Treat, Dead End Diner and Midnight Mortuary
Picture
I think Dead End Diner was our favorite this year!
Picture
Trick-Or-Treat is always fun! Be sure to ring all the doorbells and say Trick-O-Treat!
Picture
And lastly, we have Midnight Mortuary where creatures throughout Midnight Falls have taken over a bit.
Picture
We really loved the event this year, and it's great to see the theme of the Hayride grow each and every year.

We hope it continues to expand for years to come!
