AVFD Station 7 Terror Trail

A family-friendly haunted trail with activities for everyone: 

• Terror trail recommended for 8 years and older. The full blast scary experience few survive.

Ticketing

Tickets are available online and at the firehouse’s newly renovated training building during operational hours.

** By the way, if you want to see what we do with your ticket money, look at the building where we’re selling tickets this year. Station 7 AVFD has used our donations and more to convert this building from storage and renovate it into a training center for their fire and rescue volunteers. From all of us at the Station house and Terror Trail, THANK YOU! We couldn’t have done it without your support to your community.

Children, Join Us in the Dress-Up Fu

Station 7 Terror Trail welcomes children (in age or at-heart) in costume throughout the season! We encourage them to dress up in their favorite costumes and join us for a spooky and thrilling adventure. Our team is dedicated to providing a safe and enjoyable environment for all, and we can't wait to see the creative costumes our young guests will come up with.

Boo Loop Maze and Scavenger Hunt

We continue to make exciting improvements to our annual Boo Loop! Get ready for even more mildly spooky fun in our maze as we introduce some fun new scenes!

Step into different realms as they prepare for Halloween in their own way. Watch the fairies decorate the castle, but don’t let them run you down! Join the skeletons in taking in the woods; don’t worry, they won’t have a bone to pick with you after. Test out your best cackle as you approach the witches making their latest brew. And for all our animal lovers, we are excited to introduce the Boo Zoo! Though your littles can’t pet them, let their minds imagine if dinosaurs and other creatures were among us. Tap into your imagination as you explore the eerie twists and turns to find your way out.

We have also brought back our scavenger hunt! Put your detective skills to the test as you search for hidden items throughout the Boo Loop. It's a perfect opportunity to engage with friends and family as you work together to spot even the littlest details.

Whether you're a returning visitor or attending for the first time, these new additions will surely enhance your experience in the Boo Loop Maze. Get ready for an evening filled with excitement, laughter, and Halloween spirit.

Mark your calendars and join us for the Boo Loop this year. We can't wait to see you there!

Souvenirs

We are pleased to announce that we have partnered with a local maker and merchant to offer a souvenir booth! Get a T-shirt, water bottle, or other items. Make sure to stop by the booth on your way home to grab your must-haves. Don't wait too long, as these popular items tend to sell out quickly. Get your hands on the latest and greatest souvenirs and show off your love for our event. Hope to see you in our gear!

Safety Rules

We want everyone to be able to make the most of their experience with us, so please look over the following guidelines:

• Most importantly: DO NOT RUN. There are traps everywhere in the haunted trail that will cause you to trip and fall.
• No photography or video recording or even flashlights are allowed – this leads to spoilers and may lessen your or another patron’s experience.
• Put ALL your valuables in a deep closable pocket so you won’t lose them. It’s best to leave phones in your locked cars. If you are one of those people who find it hard to follow rules and you do lose something valuable, we will NOT allow you back on the haunted trail to look for the lost item until we close. You can report the loss to a person at the ticket booth and we will let you know if one of our staff find it before closing. They will NOT make looking for your item a priority.
• We reserve the right to deny access to the haunted trail or remove any disruptive patron from the trail, no refund.
• Keep your language clean and respectful; this is a family-friendly event run solely by volunteers.
• No smoking on the trail due to fire hazard.
• No drugs or alcohol.
• No weapons.
• Do not touch our staff and they will not touch you!
