Scare Farm, formerly Creepy Hollow has three great haunts:

Creepy Hollow, a walk through haunted corn trail; Paranoia, also a walk through haunted corn trail and the Slay Ride a Haunted Hay Ride.

About the Attractions:

The Creepy Hollow story is one of the most complex and darkest parts of the whole Scare Farm history. Although it’s been over a century since the Atrum family farmed this property the locals called Creepy Hollow, their evil legacy remains. Could it have been the pull of this dark land that changed something in them? Neighbors would say that the scarecrows were there for more than just scaring the crows away and you could always hear maniacal laughter through the red corn. So come and walk the same fields where ‘Old Eli’ grew and harvested his gruesome crop and “Live The Story…Or Die Trying."

The Slay Ride: Is it possible for a place to drive a person to madness and terror? While the concentration

of strange, twisted and tragic events continue in the darkness under the cold harvest moon, take a hayride at night and you will see the truth revealed. Once the sun goes down and the mask of this happy fall destination is stripped away, you will see Scare Farm as it truly exists. The terror is real, your nightmares can come to life and madness rules the land. So if you have ever thought about taking a haunted hayride during the Harvest Moon, climb aboard “The Slay Ride” and Fear the Ride!

Paranoia: Do you know the meaning of Paranoia? It is a thought process believed to be heavily influenced by

anxiety or fear, often to the point of irrationality and delusion. Paranoid thinking typically includes beliefs of conspiracy concerning a perceived threat towards oneself…e.g. "Everyone is out to get me." We will explore you deepest and darkest fears in this walk through the corn field that is planted on the sacred burial grounds! Do you know what really scares you? Well we do! And remember while you are in Paranoia "Everyone Really Is Out To Get You"

We also invite you to try The Corn Maze (non haunted attraction)

A lot of waiting

If you want to pay 50 bucks to stand around in line, this is the place for you. My wife got me tickets for my birthday and we just got the regular tickets instead of the super expensive VIP ones and the lines kill the vibe.

By the time we got into the attractions, we were cold and already annoyed. Hayrides were fine and the other 2 were okay, but it's hard to enjoy when it just feels like you're in a zoo.

Scary!

VERIFIED

I was NOT expecting to be as scared as I was! My boyfriend and I did both of the trails and hayrides and were on our toes the entire time! Never knew who was lurking in the cornstalks and waiting to scare you. So well done and a great night!

Date night fun

Went Friday night with my husband and had a really good time. Lines were moving along without feeling like we were being shoved from one attraction to the next. They do a fantastic job with prep.

Atrum Manor was fun, but Slay Ride was the one we kept talking about afterward. The actor about halfway through that made my husband scream will forever have my thanks.

Never fails to scare me

The hayrides get me every year. They shouldn't. I go EVERY year. Still get me. There’s something about sitting in the dark, knowing something is probably about to happen but having absolutely no idea when. The cast was great this year, and everyone I went with was freaked out at some point. Scare Farm has just such a cool Halloween vibe and is just a must for the season.

Where has this place been all my life?

VERIFIED

First time here and can't believe I haven't been here sooner. I've done haunted houses and hayrides throughout Jersey for years and somehow missed this one and yet it's one of the best. It didn't feel like there was a main attraction and then some fillers, all the activities felt whole and became a true horror experience.

The hayrides were the highlights. Sit towards the back...you won't regret it!

Best Ever

This is the best haunted trail/hayride I’ve ever been to. It starts as a hayride where actors jump on board and hang onto the sides of the cage. Then you walk through a large section of the corn field along a path that is pitch black apart from a few spots along the way. You can barely see where you’re going so EVERYONE that jumps out at you is a surprise. And these actors do a phenomenal job. They follow you, block your path, get super close and shout at you, and they play a wide variety of creatures. Next is another hayride, this time even more intense with guys with chainsaws getting on board. The tractor also “takes off” multiple times trying to outrun a closely chasing tractor behind you. I honestly don’t know how they pulled that off without colliding. Make sure your keys and cellphone are secured for these rides. Then finally, one more trail, seemingly scarier than the last. I could smell and hear the chainsaw guy before I encountered him and it still scared me half to death. They do a good job spacing groups so even if you speedwalk at parts, you probably won’t catch up so you truly feel like you’re there alone. Absolutely fantastic. Cannot recommend this enough. And as a bonus there’s food available to order.

CREEPY, SPOOKY, FUN - NORZ HILL SCARE FARM - DON'T MISS IT!!

VERIFIED

Norz Hill Scare Farm has a haunting hay ride and corn maze trail Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays through October in celebration of the Halloween season. I went last night and it was truly a lot of fun! Great decor, frightening creatures, strange and spooky trails and lots of jumps. They have combined all three of their attractions into one this year - Two corn maze trails and a tractor/hay ride. (I may have won the record for the most screams!) I don't want to give anything away, but needless to say you just don't know where or when you will be face to face with....? You should go and check it out. You will NOT be disappointed. Best bang for your buck and worth every penny. I think beginning to end was about an hour. One of the longest haunt trails I have been through. Don't miss it!! Oh, and get your tickets online ASAP. Because of Covid rules space is limited. P.S. Extremely Covid SAFE. They built the masks into the monsters - yet another level of creepy!

Terror filled corn stalks

VERIFIED

A farm of scares!A farm of action!Scares were aplenty. Each were kept unique and we loved the adventure. Creepy hollow was the scariest. It was completely dark and eerie. There were too many scares planned around the place. The walk through the corn fields was another adventure. It was fun to wade through the terror filled corn stalks. The actors made it even more interesting. A fantatic Halloween celebration.

Disappointed

VERIFIED

It was such a disappointment!Unfortunatelywe didn’t make it in because the line was ridiculously long. We waited for more than 2 hours and still there are a larege number of people in front of us. We tried to upgrade to vip but learned that we cant cancel the general tickets and there is no refund. never experienced something this awful.

Loads of fun

VERIFIED

Had loads of fun here. The slay ride was not too scary, but the heart pounding ending was awesome. Paranoia freaked me out. It had scary indoor like features and you just can’t say when some creepy character jumps out in frnt of you. That anticipation itself kills u from inside. I think I screamed louder than my kids on couple of occasions. The walk along the super creepy cornfield path was a spooky experience. The tall corn stalks effectively hide the sets and props, and you won’t realize until the terror strikes you. The parking was a disaster - but its handled well considereing the huge volume of patrons.Will be back next year for sure!
