Sorry, but there will be no refunds. You have purchased a ticket for the Scare Farm haunted attractions. You’ve paid to be scared. So, if you or your child is so scared that you can’t continue through the haunts, then we have done our job. There would be no reason for a refund.

Can we take flash photos the Scare Farm haunted attractions?
NO photography of any sort is not allowed in the attractions. Haunted attractions are dark and people's eyes (especially the actors) adjust to the low light. When you flash your camera you're not only ruining other customers' experience but you're hurting the actors' eyes. Also, the fog used inside the attractions ruins flash photography.
Although no photography or videotaping is allowed inside (including nightshot), the monsters working outside will quite often pose for pictures.
