Inspired by Balmer Rd.'s Cold War history, PLANT 38 is an exploration of fear, and how some predators have evolved to feed on it.
Three Attractions.
One Story.
PLANT 38 combines a haunted hayride, haunted trail and haunted house into one connected nighttime experience through the woods and attractions of Autumn's Gate.
Haunted Hayride
Travel into the darker reaches of the property as broken radio transmissions, unexplained movement and enormous silhouettes begin appearing beyond the wagon lights.
Some things are easier to see when you wish you hadn't.
Haunted Trail
Enter the familiar Trick or Treat Trail on foot. Doors, cemetery scenes and Halloween environments remain, but something seems to have learned how people behave when they think everything around them is pretend.
Follow the trail. Ignore the screaming. Keep moving.
Haunted House
Enter the corrupted world of The Hollow King. The familiar story begins breaking apart as things appear that nobody remembers building.
Eventually you may stop knowing which monsters are ours.
People Have Said It For Years.
Riders feel calmer here.
Campers become braver.
People enter the woods afraid of something and come back wondering why they were ever afraid at all.
We always thought that was part of what made this place special.
We Fill Those Same Woods With Fear.
Monsters. Strange voices. Dark trails. Screaming. People deliberately frightened for fun.
Halloween teaches us to ignore instincts that would protect us anywhere else.
We follow strangers in costumes. We walk toward screams. We enter dark places because someone tells us to.
Because it is Halloween.
Because it is supposed to be pretend.

PLANT 38 Kids Night Out
Think they're ready to go without you? Almost.
Plant 38 is even better with friends.
For ages 8+, Kids Night Out gives them the freedom to experience Plant 38 with their crew while Autumn's Gate handles the supervision.
Plant 38 Kids Night Out is $48 per child and includes Plant 38 admission plus supervision throughout the experience.
It's perfect for that group of friends who are a little too young to tackle a Halloween attraction completely on their own, but definitely don't want Mom and Dad following them around all night.
Kids Night Out is staffed and operated using the same ratios and safety protocols as our DOH-regulated Summer Camp, including a maximum 12:1 participant-to-staff ratio.
They Get The Independence.
You Get The Peace Of Mind.

Ages 8+. Includes PLANT 38 admission and staff supervision throughout the experience.
