Haunted Harvest at Springs Preserve returns for four nights of family-friendly Halloween activities from October 22nd through October 25th, 2026. The event runs from 6:00 PM to 8:30 PM each evening, with trick-or-treat stations, live entertainment, carnival-style activities and spooky characters throughout the outdoor grounds.
Springs Preserve members have access to a limited number of early-entry tickets beginning at 4:00 PM. General admission hours begin at 6:00 PM.
Trick-or-Treat Through Springs Preserve
Haunted Harvest turns portions of Springs Preserve into a Halloween trail filled with trick-or-treat stations and seasonal entertainment. Children can move between candy stops while exploring the property after normal daytime hours.
The event is designed as a safe, family-friendly Halloween celebration rather than an intense haunted attraction, making it a good option for younger children and families who want seasonal fun without heavy scares.
Explore the Bootanical Garden
One of the signature areas is the Bootanical Garden, where Halloween characters and spooky surprises are placed throughout the garden setting.
The experience mixes Springs Preserve’s outdoor environment with Halloween decorations and performers, creating a different atmosphere from a standard indoor haunted house or neighborhood trick-or-treat event.
Live Entertainment and Activities
Haunted Harvest also includes live entertainment, carnival games and interactive activities throughout the event area. Programming is spread across the property, so families can move at their own pace rather than following a single timed show.
Food vendors are also expected during the event, with options ranging from festival-style snacks to casual meals available for purchase.
Costumes Are Welcome
Guests are encouraged to wear Halloween costumes. However, adults age 18 and older may not wear masks that completely cover the face.
Because the event takes place outdoors and involves walking through multiple areas of Springs Preserve, comfortable shoes are a practical choice.
Plan More Time at Springs Preserve
Families who have not visited recently can also explore Springs Preserve during regular daytime hours, with museums, botanical gardens, trails and rotating exhibits spread across the 180-acre property.
Parking at Haunted Harvest
Parking is free at Springs Preserve. Overflow parking is available at Meadows Mall when the main lot reaches capacity.
Because attendance is limited and Haunted Harvest is expected to sell out, guests should purchase tickets before arriving rather than relying on same-day availability.
Tickets and Registration
Advance online tickets are required for Haunted Harvest. Non-member admission is $14 for guests age 3 and older, while Value Members pay $8. Children age 2 and younger are free. All attendees must have a ticket for the selected event date and time, and ticket sales are final with no refunds or rescheduling.
