So, as we swoop out of summer and harvest time, we find ourselves preparing for pumpkin spice, cooler days, corn mazes, and everything baked goods. But you still want to find that fun something for you and the kids to do on a Sunday afternoon. In the Amish Country, Sunday is a time for most people to give praise, recharge their batteries, and reflect. Yes, a small number of restaurants and other venues may be open here and there, but most are closed for the day. So, what do you do, when you get the itch to get out of the house with the family and do something fun?
As some people may be big fans of the Halloween Holiday and Summer Treats, like myself, sometimes it’s hard to find a way to merge the two together that delivers a fun time and is able to embrace both. I’m a BIG fan of ice cream, every day! And Halloween, well seeing all the crazy and spooky decorations, with the little tykes and yes adults too, parading around, as their favorite character of the moment. That once-in-a-year celebration of all things spooky and fun.
Well, don’t worry! There is a place of eerie wonder and fun that has created that perfect blend of fun for this special time and event. A couple of years ago, the Turkey Hill Experience, and their Mad Scientist, created an experience to merge the two. Recently, I have been informed that they unveiled their “Third Annual – Halloween Spooktacular Event”, this year the date has been set for this unique fun once-a-year opportunity for the whole family. There are trick and treats, a friendly storytelling Witch, along with Halloween-themed games and activities. So, set your calendars for Sunday, October 22, 2023, between 12:00-4:00 PM. Grab your Mummy, the Boys and Ghouls, and the rest of the family, and head out to the Turkey Hill Experience for a spooky fun time.
