Has it been 16 Years? How time dies. We’re a bona fide teenage terror now. It was never the plan. But somehow we stumbled on this putrid plot of pharmland, and came to know its haunted history. We planted our wee “Panic Seeds” and gently nourished them, year after year, with terror & trembling until a full forest of fear emerged, and subdued all the life-giving organisms.
The 2026 Haunt at the Haunted Forest at Panic Point is an outdoor trail filled with live actors, spooky sets, and jump scares designed to terrify visitors. Operating for over a decade and a half, this attraction transforms a local plot of farmland into a multi-part destination featuring a haunted forest, dark trail, and hayride. Before you pack up the car, know that this event is not meant for toddlers or young children. It is best suited for middle schoolers, high schoolers, and adults who can handle intense, hands-on scares. Ticket prices vary depending on the date and package you choose, and you should purchase them online in advance to secure your entry time. Wear closed-toe shoes suitable for walking on uneven, unpaved forest paths, and dress in layers for the autumn night air. This is an excellent weekend pick if you need an activity that actually appeals to your hard-to-please teenagers. It gets everyone outdoors, off their screens, and laughing together as you navigate the dark woods of the Triangle area.
