While Midnight Forest is designed for thrills, to make sure everyone has the best and most terrifying experience possible, there are a few regulations that we need to follow.

1.  Touch nothing and no one.  The scareactors will not touch you, so please do not touch them.  Scenery should not be disturbed.

2.  No alcoholic beverages permitted.  Individuals that appear to be under the influence will not be permitted to purchase tickets or participate.

3.  For safety reasons, no lighters or flames of any kind are permitted.  Violators will be removed from the trail without a refund.

4.  No smoking on the trail, on the hay ride, in line for any attraction, or near the HallowShop.

5.  For the safety of our scareactors and others on the trail, absolutely no light sources are permitted.  No flashlights, cameras, cell phones, lighters, or any other light source.  They destroy everyone's night vision, and persons using these devices will be removed from the trail without a refund.

6.  No line jumping.  If you want to tour Midnight Forest with your group, please enter with your group.  See someone you know?  That's fine.  They can come back to the end of the line with you.  Midnight Forest's definition of line jumping includes cutting in front of someone else in line for any reason, leaving the line and attempting to re-enter, or saving a spot for someone in line. 

7.  Please be respectful.  Avoid profanity and act in a mature manner while participating.

8.  To eliminate confusion and safety concerns, please...no costumes or masks.

9.  Climbing on any structures, equipment, trees, or anything else is strictly prohibited.  No pushing or shoving.  Act in a mature and appropriate manner for a public trail.
