02 / The story of this place

Make time for these

Niles Scream Park rebuilds its six major attractions every year, among them a haunted house, outdoor mazes and the 18+ Hooded walk. In 2026 the Midway also hosts four five-minute horror escape rooms, booked by time slot at the park for groups of at least four. Midway admission is free; the escape rooms are $5 per person. Haunted Attraction Magazine put the park on its Top 31 Must-See Haunted Attractions list, and in 2025 it picked up two local community and readers' choice awards for best seasonal attraction.

  • Four five-minute horror escape rooms
