  Email Verified The Haunting Experience on Hwy 61—An Absolute Must-See Thrill!

  We brought 16 of our employees from our pumpkin farm to The Haunting Experience on Highway 61, and everyone walked away raving about it! The haunted house was amazingly scary. The spinning tunnel you walk through was unforgettable and such a cool, disorienting effect. The Massacre was an awesome new event that kept us on our toes, and the haunted hayride had our hearts pounding from start to finish. The actors, sets, and overall atmosphere were top-notch. If you’re looking for a night full of scares, surprises, and nonstop fun, this place delivers. The snacks, Halloween beverages and DJ added to the. Highly recommend! 👻🎃

  Email Verified Best Haunted Hayride and Haunted House in Minnesota

  We recently brought a group of 15 to The Haunting Experience in Cottage Grove, and it exceeded expectations. From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel welcome and added to the overall atmosphere with their energy and professionalism. The haunted house was intense—in the best way. Our entire group was screaming and jumping at nearly every turn, thanks to expertly timed scares and creative set design. The attention to detail kept us fully immersed. The haunted hayride was just as impressive, with multiple paths and scenes that made each moment unpredictable. The actors didn’t hold back—they fully embodied their characters and delivered a performance that was both eerie and entertaining. If you're looking for a well-executed haunted attraction that delivers on both scares and fun for groups, this one is worth the visit.

  Email Verified Very impressed...

  If you want to get really scared, this is the one to visit. The haunted hayride was rocking scary from start to finish. It was very well done with creative sets and many original characters and scares. Yes, I screamed few times and surprised myself. My GF was holding to my hand all the time. We were very impressed and will definitely do this again.

  Email Verified Scariest in my experience

  Well organized and great scare factor This haunted hayride that passes through tunnels and gnarled trees was one of the scariest in my experience. The element of unpredictability will keep you on your toes all the time. My kids were screaming non-stop. By the time we exited, I thought I would have liked it to be longer. Can't wait for next season!

  Email Verified Pretty scary!!

  Lots of scares and laughter. Very entertaining. The haunted house was pretty scary. It was also the longest I’d visited of late. Hayride was great fun. I was pretty startled couple of times in the ride. I will certainly visit again next year.
