Bats and bullfrogs, vampires and vermin, ghosts, ghouls and goblins, everything that goes “Bump” in the night are lurking along hidden trails. Count Dracula's vampires will guide you down the garden paths into the deciduous forest where you will witness what it is like when the cemeteries come alive and the witches, skeletons and ghouls come out to play. After a spooky trip through our creepy garden paths, visitors are greeted at the Haunter's Ball with a “treat” and Halloween fun.
