The Ultimate Haunted Date Night
Tips for Couples Coming to The Dead End Hayride
Looking for a thrilling, unforgettable date night in Minnesota this fall? Whether it’s your first date or a yearly tradition, The Dead End Hayride is one of the most exciting and top-rated haunted attractions in the country, offering the perfect blend of heart-pounding scares and cozy fall fun for couples of all ages.
Voted #1 haunted attraction in Minnesota and consistently ranked in the Top 5 haunted experiences nationwide, The Dead End Hayride features three chilling attractions in one epic experience, our signature haunted hayride, a twisted cornfield, and a scream-worthy haunted walkthrough. The full experience lasts approximately 45 minutes to an hour, and all three attractions are included in one low ticket price.
But it’s not just about the scares. Our massive midway is bursting with over 14 food and beverage buildings, serving up everything from classic fair food favorites to decadent desserts and sweet fall treats. Don’t forget to stop by our popular beer garden for adult beverages, the perfect spot to unwind and share a toast with your boo under the stars.
Want to dial up the romance? Stroll hand-in-hand through our magical Pumpkin Trail, a glowing, immersive light walk that’s perfect for couples. With photo ops around every corner, this side of the farm adds a more intimate twist to your haunted date night. The Pumpkin Trail requires a separate ticket, but the ambiance is more than worth it for those looking to cozy up away from the chaos.
And here’s a pro tip: while Fridays and Saturdays in October are packed with energy and excitement, they’re also our busiest nights. For a more intimate and budget-friendly experience, plan your date for a Monday through Thursdayevening. You’ll beat the crowds and enjoy discounted tickets….win-win.
To make your night as seamless as possible, we highly recommend purchasing tickets online in advance. Not only does this save you time at the gate, but some nights do sell out, especially as we get closer to Halloween.
Whether you’re here to scream together, snuggle through the scares, or simply soak up the fall vibes, The Dead End Hayride has everything you need for the ultimate spooky-season date night. Come make memories you’ll never forget unless, of course, you black out from fear.
