The Abandoned Hayride
Minnesota's most terrifying haunted hayride returns on September 25! The Abandoned Hayride is one of the Twin Cities' premier Halloween attractions, delivering a cinematic haunted hayride experience unlike anything else in the Midwest.
Located in Chaska, Minnesota, just minutes from Minneapolis, St. Paul, Eden Prairie, Chanhassen, Shakopee, and surrounding Twin Cities communities, The Abandoned Hayride takes you deep into a world of immersive horror. Your journey begins aboard a haunted hayride where you'll travel through 10 unforgettable scenes featuring movie-quality sets, terrifying live actors, breathtaking special effects, and mind-bending illusions that blur the line between fantasy and nightmare.
But the nightmare is only beginning.
After the hayride, descend into Stonehell, a labyrinth of ancient caves where bloodthirsty vampires lurk in the darkness and every passage leads deeper into their underground kingdom. If you survive, you'll enter Exiled, where you—and only one companion, if you choose—must find your own way through the darkness before you're trapped forever. Then, make your final journey through Mirehollow, a haunted marsh cursed by sinister witches, twisted folklore, eerie creatures, and dark magic that follows your every step.
If you're searching for the best haunted hayride in Minnesota, a haunted attraction near Minneapolis, or an unforgettable Halloween adventure this fall, The Abandoned Hayride delivers one of the most immersive and unforgettable horror experiences in the Midwest.
Open select nights beginning September 25. Visit our website for tickets, official dates, and event information... if you're brave enough to enter.
