Dead Fall Trail: Nothing Spreads Like Fear! 

The year is 1932. The once hopeful timber community of Hickory Ridge, Louisiana is tapped-out, it’s few remaining inhabitants in the depths of the Great Depression.

A desperate attempt by a grieving man, obsessed with communicating with loved ones long-lost, has had drastic consequences. The door has been opened and an ancient evil has spilled into present and refused to return to the Dark.

Events that followed would haunt those woods for generations.

Descend over 1/3 mile into this new chilling chapter of Dark Woods’ torrid tale populated by voices of the dead, diabolic beasts, otherworldly wraiths, deranged doctors, corrupted caretakers and pestiferous patients! New sets, scenes and characters join the expanded trail this year in an immersive, themed experience.

You're never quite sure if your spine is tingling with dread or sheer excitement!
