Castle Nottingham
A Nightmare in Nottingham Returns. The Nightmare in Nottingham Manor is a neighborhood home haunt that operates trick-or-treat night and sometimes the night or two after – depending on how ambitious we are. We are free for anyone that shows up. Mostly this ends up being a family gathering for us and we thoroughly enjoy scaring the crap out of all of you. Don’t expect huge animatronics or a midway full of carnival rides and games. We’re small and we like it that way. Besides, I doubt if my neighbors would appreciate a Ferris Wheel being set up in the middle of our street. We don’t accept donations of money or anything else. This way we can continue to be considered amateurs. This the gift that we – the Nottingham Family – give to you our neighbors. Come and see us won’t you?

CMN Trail Of Terror
A haunted trail in the corn, proceeds go to Children’s Miracle Network. Ghost, goblins, bloody body parts & much more, not recommended for kids under 12!

Demon House
The McCue Mansion has a history that is layered in horrors and lost souls, and until now, kept secret by the mansion itself. Demon House will shock your inner soul. Recently, while planning for the annual Haunt experience, the new owners of the mansion learned that the land that the mansion now sits upon was once used as a burial ground for a civilization that once populated the land of Monongahela, Pennsylvania. Demon House – will scare the soul out of you. 

Devil’s Folly Haunted Barn
The 6600 square ft haunted barn features live zombies, mazes, moving walls, scary music and sound effects, screaming victims and much more. Horrifying images of bodies and body parts are evidence of the evil that took over this once peaceful village. There are plenty of surprises and scares in this Halloween attraction in the Lehigh Valley, PA. Enter if you dare! This attraction is appropriate for all ages, although many of the younger children have been afraid to enter. There are over 40 live actors who may frighten you, but they won’t deliberately grab you. Food and souvenirs will be available for purchase. We look forward to scaring you!
