Grizzlies gear up for Halloween weekend by heading down to the valley for a nighttime scare. If you decide to make Stocker Farms your fright of choice you can choose between scary corn mazes or a muddy, confusing flashlight maze.

“My Favorite part was people popping out at me”, Junior Gracie Moore said.

You can buy a single haunt pass for $16.45 which allows you to choose one of the three haunt attractions. You can also by the Big Haunt Combo for $19.65 where you’re able to do all three events. “I did the Big Haunt Combo and it was the best choice because it’s all three events for just three dollars more,” Moore said.

Right across the street you can change it up a bit and test your scare meter in the Nightmare on 9 Haunted House for $18.00. For a more sit down kind of scare you can try the Zombie Paint Ball Hayride where the rider aims paint balls at moving zombies for $18.00. If you go in a group you an always work together in the FSI (Farm Scene Investigation) corn maze to solve the mystery of the missing Farmer Joe. Single admission for the corn maze is $13.00 but if you come in a group of 20-49 you pay $11.00. Groups of 50 or more pay $10.00 per person.

“The haunted house was very suspenseful and I probably screamed at least 50 times,” Junior Christina Maguire said. It was over all a good Halloween season. ‘Til next year Highway 9.
