Pirates of Emerson

There are no fewer than five separate haunted attractions at the Pirates of Emerson haunted theme park. Now over 20 years old, the Pirates of Emerson are sure to terrify this October’s crop of fright-seekers with the intriguingly named spaces Prison Panic, Psychopath and The Haunted, not to mention their namesake ghostly pirate ship. Outside of the haunted houses, the park keeps the adrenaline pumping with mazes, a frightmares sideshow, a misfortune teller and live music. Tickets start at $35 at the door, $30 online. Kids under 10 not recommended.
