Sat 30th / 5pm – 10pm
Sun 31st / 4pm – 930pm (Main event)

Located at 99 Highway Ave, Congers.

“Sat might not have all the scary monsters in the yard as we always have last minute things to setup. So you’ll prob seeing us walking around fixing things. If you want the full scare factor we suggest you come Sunday.

We recommend younger kids come during day light hours if they don’t want to see the ghouls and scary creatures. They tend not to come out during the day!”

Entry Fee: Bring canned food or non perishable food donations, which will get donated back to a local charity in need of it.

We highly recommend grabbing a friend or two, grab some canned good and enjoy the Congers Halloween Spooktacular!
