Last weekend we were invited out to Castle Park in Riverside to celebrate the 15th Anniversary of Castle Dark! The event features two haunted mazes, a ton of scareactors and sliders, and even a haunted attraction with actual scare actors scaring you (which totally got me if I'm being honest).
​Let's head in for some spooky fun! 
Welcome to Castle Dark!
They've really stepped up some of the costumes this year.
Always fun running into our spooky friends!
We got a preview of a new show that debuted in the tent that night! Fun dance show.
Waiting for the fog to roll in!
Same view, 5 minutes later. LOL!
That's more like it!
As we experienced last year, the lighting around the event is spectacular!
Lots of signs around the park telling you where everything is!
Let's check out Haunted Highway! Did you know this attraction had a previous home at Knott's Berry Farm?
More spectacular lighting!
Movie themed mazes seem to be a thing this year, and this was actually quite good!
Creepy Fountains are the best
A lot of really fun scareactors around the event
Thank you for having us out Castle Park! Congrats on having a great event this year!

This past weekend we were invited out to Castle Dark at Castle Park in Riverside, California.
The event is at the absolutely charming Castle Park which we haven't visited in a few years, so it was not only great to see all of the Halloween fun, but also to get back to the park itself. In addition to the ride park, Castle Park also features an amazing mini golf course which has special lighting during Castle Dark. All in all, the event is great for locals and definitely has the potential to grow in the years to come. Let's head in and check out this fun event! For information and Tickets to Castle Dark, check out the Castle Park website. 
Welcome to Castle Dark!
Like their sister park Kennywood, Castle Dark has implemented a Chaperone Policy. That didn't stop younger people from waiting around the entrance asking adults to chaperone them into the event.
We were thoroughly impressed with the lighting at the event.
The roaming characters were very awesome!
And some awesome props!
Our first maze was Morgana's Revenge. This maze is easily the longest of the 3 mazes at the event. Despite having a lot of black walls, there were actually a lot of quality scares in this maze!
More awesome lighting!
After checking out the arcade and mini-golf, it's back to the ride park!
Our second maze was The House Next Door!
We absolutely loved this maze, just wish it was a bit longer.
The third maze at the event was the Funhouse of Terror!
This was our favorite maze at the event, just a super fun classic clown maze.
Thanks for having us out Castle Park! We look forward to returning to the event in future Halloween seasons!
