Acadiana’s favorite not-so-scary Halloween party is where there is fun for the whole family. Chunk a pumpkin, build a Frankenstein, feed the monsters, watch a thrilling science show, get a little batty with art … just a few of the real “treats” that will have your ghouls and goblins howling for more.

Fright Trail:

• Located at 5305 Cameron St, Lafayette, LA 70506
• Who can attend: anyone 8 years and older
• Cost: $25
• Fright Trail is a cash-only event
• Fright Trail is open every Friday and Saturday in October as well as all of Halloween weekend.
• The box office opens at 7:00 PM and closes at 11:00 PM and the trail stays open until the last customer leaves.

Voted Louisiana’s #1 Haunted Trail. Clowns, masked maniacs with chainsaws, and zombies are just a few of the spooks you'll find in the woods. But Fright Trail is more than just a great place to get spooked; it's also the primary supporter of local non-profit, Literacy, Inc.

2nd Annual Pumpkin Patch:
