4 haunted houses on the Gulf Coast that will scare you silly this Halloween
Looking for a chilling fright this Halloween? Are the normal Halloween celebrations just not cutting it? No worries! We’ve got you covered with 4 spooky haunted house attractions on the Gulf Coast that are sure to send a shiver down your spine.
1. Terror in the Park
What’s better: getting scared senseless or riding an amusement ride until you can’t see straight? Thanks to OWA, you don’t have to choose.
The Park at OWA has designated three different “scare zones” dedicated to your deepest fears, murderous clowns, and the zombie apocalypse. What’s the best part? These scare zones are socially-distant!
Already a season pass holder for the Park? Bring a friend to your frightful adventure for only 5 bucks.
Admission to Terror in the Park includes access to the all three different scare zones and the amusement rides for a night so fun, it’s scary.

2. The Dark Woods
Take a trip to Robertsdale and see if you can escape the I-10 Slasher.
“Evil witches have resurrected the notorious Farmer Brown… Anyone who dare to enter his haunted forest will never leave the same. If you’re brave enough, come jump on his hayride where you’ll be dropped off in the Dark Woods. The only way back is through the haunted forest where Farmer Brown and his twisted freaks will be waiting!”
