Haunted Forest – Terrorfied Forest

For 23 years, Terrorfied Forest has been the go-to haunted attraction in southeast Michigan.

This haunted forest takes visitors through an almost one-mile trail to encounter creatures who have lurked through these woods for years. Ask for “Monster Repellent” for those who scare easily at the ticket booth.
Visit this forest every Thursday through Sunday through October.

If you love to be scared then we dare you to try Slay Nights in Howell. Every weekend in October, your nightmares await you in this 10,000-square-foot indoor two-story haunted house. Your night of terror begins by placing you in the center of the abandoned video rental store called Mike’s Home Rental. Visitors of this premier haunted house can expect to be frightened to the core and want to come back.
Go to Hell
What could be spookier than visiting Hell? Hell, Michigan that is. During the month of October, the city of Hell showcases its Halloween spirit. While visiting, be sure to check out Screams Souvenirs From Hell & Helloween, get some ice cream from the Crematory, or become Mayor for the day!
