Field of Screams is Vernon's annual haunted Halloween farm experience, set on Historic O'Keefe Ranch and presenting multiple spooky walking attractions that will send shivers down your spine.
Each October since 2013, this month-long Halloween event near Vernon ratchets up the horror with multiple tours, each geared for nightmarish fun.
This year’s theme is the tenth anniversary year and you can bet theatrical performances will be over the top, with four different mazes to explore.
Have a look at the themes for 2023, below, to get a sense of what to expect at this year's event. (Descriptions and images provided by Field of Screams.)
"Embark on a harrowing journey through the Mansion of the Seven Deadly Sins, where each room represents one of humanity's darkest vices. Will you dare to wander through the treacherous chambers, confronting the malevolent spirits lurking within?"
Enter the nightmarish world of your favourite video game horrors, featuring iconic titles like Resident Evil, The Last of Us, Silent Hill, Slenderman, and Five Nights at Freddy's. Beware as the virtual terror comes to life with every step you take through this maze's dark and twisted passages.
Venture into the eerie world of “Scarecrow”, a maze filled with enigmatic, motionless scarecrows and relentless ones that come to life, hunting their prey with unwavering determination. Will you outsmart the Scarecrows and find your way out, or will you be forever lost in their menacing fields?
Face your deepest fears and phobias, where claustrophobia, arachnophobia and more await your arrival! Can you conquer your anxieties and escape the grips of terror within?
