Knott's Scary Farm

The 160-acre theme park transforms into a horror landscape featuring haunted mazes, scare zones, and roaming characters during Halloween season each year.

Established in 1973 by George Condos and Martha Boyd from the marketing department, the event started as a three-night affair and rapidly expanded.

The integration of horror and humor elements in the 1990s created a distinctive entertainment format that influenced Halloween celebrations across theme parks nationwide.

Visitors can experience multiple haunted mazes, themed shows, and special dining options from late September through early November on selected nights.

The character of the Green Witch, portrayed by Charlene Parker, became an iconic figure through decades of performances that defined the attraction's atmosphere.
