What is an appropriate age for this years Combo Trail Pack that includes the Haunted trail and Trail of Terror ?
The attraction is intended to be very scary and are staffed with very good actors. It is difficult to recommend an appropriate age for any event: some 10 year olds participate and they love it, while some 13 year olds are escorted off the trail in tears. Parental discretion is advised.

The actors are trained and professional and have been instructed not to intentionally touch or grab any of the patrons, however, we cannot guarantee they wont accidentally bump or touch you as the environment is purposely dark and disorienting and full of moving and emotional people. We cannot guarantee that accidents will not happen and that you won’t be touched. Enter at your own risk.

 

Do you accept credit cards?
Yes, we accept Visa and Mastercard onsite for concessions, however, all entry tickets must be purchased in advance online.

If I get too scared can I get a refund?
No. The point of participating in the event is to get scared! The Field of Screams Maryland is a fundraising event for the Olney Boys & Girls Community Sports Association.

 

How is this year's attraction different from past years?
Every year our creative geniuses come up with sick new ideas. Paths have been completely re-routed for the haunted trail to ensure fresh new scares and thrills. You will not be disappointed!

 

When is the best time to come so we can avoid a long wait?
You must buy tickets online and in advance. The timed ticketing system will allow for a smooth flow of people but Fridays and Saturdays will be larger crowds, but still Covid compliant and socially distanced.

What should I wear?
The event is outdoors so dress warmly and be prepared for the weather.  The grounds and parking lots can be slippery, uneven and wet. Long pants and sturdy shoes are highly recommended. Flips flops, opened toed shoes and high heels are a really really bad idea no matter how good they look.
