Mishawum Farm Haunted Hayride

For Halloween we took the kids on a haunted hayride at Mishawum Farms located in Freedom, NH (about 5 minutes from Danforth Bay Camping Resort).

We went around 630PM as suppposedly it gets scarier later on in the evening. The real hay wago ride pulled by a tracker is about $5 per person

Hightlights of the ride:

• "Headless horseman" (riding on a real horse) was running through the woods was really cool


• Sounds from the haywagon brustling up against the overgrown brush make it a bit more eerie. I keep looking over to see if someone was sneakingup on us.


• The ride is about 20 to 30 minute ride (just long enough). Most of it goes through the woods and along the perimeter of the horse circles.


• A clown standing on the side of the road only to come to life as we were passing by really freaked out and scared our pre-teens out of their the seats and a recieved big laugh from my wife!
• The "Cruella da Ville" character (also coming to life as we passed) chased a "the puppy" was cute. The puppy hopped on the hayride and rode with us for the rest of the trip.

Overall


This is a local "Mom and Pop" operation (vs Spooky World) and I'm not big on going to these "scary/haunted" events so I have nothing really to compare it against. All I can say is that we had a GREAT time and was a nice change to the typical "trick-or-treating". They even gave out a little candy treat for the kids at the end of the ride.

We hoped they had more business as this place was not easy to find. We only knew about it because posters that were around the Freedom/Danforth Bay area.

Next year -- CHECK IT OUT!
