Harvest Haunt takes Liberty Ridge Farm in October

Frightful Nights Expected in Field of Screams and Forest of Fear

SCHAGHTICOKE, NY (09/30/2009)(readMedia)-- Friday and Saturday nights in October are Harvest Haunt Adventures at Liberty Ridge Farm. At 7pm on those nights the spirits rise from the dead to provide special admission activities in the spooky "Field of Screams" corn maze and, for those brave enough, a journey into the Forest of Fear and through the farm's Hunting Lodge.

"If you're looking for a good scare during our fall festival, visit us on Friday and Saturday nights during October." said Cynthia Gifford, owner of Liberty Ridge Farm, "As darkness settles over the farm our maze is taken over by ghouls and goblins that lurk within the cornstalks."

In October, as the sun sets, a portion of the Capital Region's original and largest corn maze transforms into the Field of Screams. Carved into the corn is the labyrinth of paths and passageways of Henry Hudson's ship, the Half Moon, where ghouls, goblins and things that go bump in the dark haunt in the cornstalks. The brave can journey through the Forest of Fear where the woods are stalked by the spirits of crypt and cemetery. The farmer's hunting lodge will put you in a tight squeeze of fear.

You may get frightened, but you can't get lost, even in the dark. The Liberty Ridge Farm Corn Maze has Interactive Text Messaging; get help by texting for clues with a special codes found in the maze. Be sure to bring your phone.

Special admission is $15 and includes all the Harvest Haunt activities and Brad's Barnyard of farm fun. Don't wait in an admission line, purchase tickets online for a fast pass of fright to the Harvest Haunt at Liberty Ridge Farm. Go to www.libertyridgefarmny.com
