Located just a short drive from Austin and San Antonio in Smithville, Scream Hollow Wicked Halloween Park is now open for the 2026 spooky season as the region’s premier destination for heart-pounding haunted entertainment. Spanning 20 acres of pitch-black woods, this immersive park features five distinct haunted attractions, live music, and even a museum housing actual haunted artifacts.
5 Terrifying Attractions You Have to Experience
- Mansion of Terror Coven: Step inside a decaying, abandoned mansion and attempt to navigate its cursed history before you become part of it.
- Sinister Circus: The clowns have abandoned their roles as harmless entertainers—listen closely for their laughter echoing through the dark tree line.
- Lost Pines Asylum: Venture past the perimeter where dark experiments went wrong and try to escape with your sanity intact.
- Alien Encounter: Step directly into a crashed extraterrestrial craft and navigate a claustrophobic maze of winding corridors.
- The Hallowed Harvest Haunted Hayride: Forget traditional autumn rides; this cursed trail takes guests deep into ancient sacrificial grounds.
Beyond the Scares: Drinks, Eats & Real Haunted History
After surviving the haunted trails, visitors can explore the on-site Halloween History Museum & Haunted Museum, which features a curated collection of verified haunted artifacts.
The park’s sprawling courtyard also offers a full lineup of food, drinks, and entertainment to round out your visit:
- The Cackling Witch & Bakery: Serves up smoked brisket sandwiches, fresh pizza, and signature voodoo fries.
- Savage Sweetz: Loaded with carnival classics including hot funnel cakes, deep-fried Oreos, and adult cotton candy.
- Dragon’s Breath Tavern & The Tractor Beam Pub: Features cold beers, craft cocktails, and live local music throughout the night.
- Coffin Cat Bar: Offers a quiet glass of wine in a unique, gothic space—where guests can even hop inside a free coffin ride while waiting for their drinks.
