For the first time ever, the Haunted Mill will be open for two days!

This year features a human zoo exhibit created by AI from Alyssa Follansbee, a neon transdimensional hologram projection from Mathilda LaZelle Moore, a monstrous print installation from Dadisi Curtis Jr., a concession stand run by animals from Jessica Santana, jack-o-lantern carving led by Kate Conlon and Boyang Hou, a haunted human body installation from Miranda Nichols, a temple to the oozy goodness of the grilled cheese sandwich by Paul Belenky and Emma Anne Johnson, a graveyard and funeral home with memories for sale by Taylor Lee Nicholson, a manic slideshow of AI images gone wrong from Michael Mersereau, a trip to the Halloween-less Czech Republic by Pavel “Lishown” Liška and Barbora Lišková, and a haunted art cave featuring Polly Shindler, Grace Lang, Lauren Cohen, Jeila Gueramian, Kim Baise, and Erik Daniel White. On Saturday only, we'll have hay rides as well!

Haunted Mill tickets are $10 for individuals and $20 for families. (Two parents, one kid? $20. Two parents, four kids? Still $20.) If your family has a student in the Webutuck Central School District, keep an eye on your email for a promo code for a free ticket. Please note that advance tickets to the Haunted Mill are not required, but RSVPing in advance and sticking to your day will help the line move smoothly this year!

On Saturday the 28th (only!) at 7:00 PM, we’ll head over to The Lantern’s garden for the Monster’s Ball, featuring a costume contest and live music. This year's band is the Brass Queens: a 9-piece brass band featuring an all-female horn section with a sound inspired by the New Orleans tradition. Please note that Monster’s Ball tickets must be purchased in advance and all attendees must wear a costume. Meaning: no day-of or at-the-door sales and uncostumed ball-goers will be turned away, even with a ticket. We’re not kidding! Dress to impress, dance ’til you drop.
