History

Established in 1991.

The Bates Motel and Haunted Hayride began in 1991 as an action packed haunted hayride that was mostly actor driven. As the hayride grew, large scale sets and intricate animatronic monsters were included. In 1996 the Bates Motel haunted house was added to the attraction and with the «in your face scares» quickly became a fan favorite. In 2000, the haunted corn trail was installed and has created a new element to this attraction; up close and personal scares. All three attractions feature custom digital sound systems that enhance the total experience.
