Description: The purpose of the Haunted Woods is to give our park visitors a fun and safe place to face their fears once a year. In the old days, Halloween was a time that people faced the fear of the long winter nights and a variety of woodland demons. We provide those demons to give our visitors a chance to face them. Remember: The rules of the Haunted Woods are simple. Don't touch the creatures, and they won't touch you. Please join us-- Bwa ha ha. Proceeds will benefit the Hillsborough River State Park or current Fort Foster Historic Site projects.
