Haunted Graveyard at Lake Compounce

The largest and scariest Halloween event in New England opens on September 30th at Lake Compounce! The entire park will be transformed to frighten and delight guests and the spine-chilling Haunted Graveyard will not disappoint! Gates open at 5pm, park rides operate starting at 5pm (rides will not be open on Oct 31) and the Haunted Graveyard opens at dusk every Friday, Saturday, and Sunday evening in October (closed Oct 2). The Haunted Graveyard is rated PG for Pretty Ghoulish and is not intended for small children or adults who may be frightened easily.

Guests are encouraged to arrive early to purchase their timed tickets, and then enjoy the park until their designated show time. As always, a portion of the proceeds from the Haunted Graveyard will go to benefit Diabetes Research.

Lake Compounce Season Pass Holders are granted admission into the park and onto rides with their season pass. Pass holders must purchase a Haunted Graveyard Only ticket in order to enter The Haunted Graveyard.
