With Halloween just around the corner, the Los Angeles Haunted Hayride and Halloween Festival is gearing up to close out the spooky season with a mix of new attractions and returning favorites.

Featured in the 130th edition of the KHTS Destination Series, the festival offers more than ever this year, with new scare mazes, shows, games, and rides awaiting thrill-seekers.

Among the newest additions are Elvira’s Trick or Treat Mayhem, Elvira’s Pop-Up Shop, and the Midnight Falls Cider Mill.

Elvira’s Trick or Treat Mayhem
Guests can enter a frightful world of candy-coated chaos in Elvira’s Trick or Treat Mayhem. Hidden behind the facade of her eerie new home in Midnight Falls, this haunted maze is filled with bizarre surprises and ghoulish goodies. Infused with the Mistress of the Dark’s signature humor and mischief, the attraction brings Halloween mayhem vividly to life.

Elvira’s Pop-Up Shop
Visitors can also explore the Elvira Pop-Up Retail Shop, featuring a curated selection of merchandise inspired by the iconic Mistress of the Dark. From witty T-shirts to limited-edition collectibles, the shop offers fans a chance to take home a piece of Elvira’s signature spooky style.

Midnight Falls Cider Mill
For those seeking a brief respite from the scares, the Midnight Falls Cider Company offers freshly pressed apple cider and warm cider donuts. The rustic setting provides a cozy taste of autumn — though, as the festival warns, comfort in Midnight Falls never lasts long.

Returning Mazes

Haunted Hayride (Now with Seating)
The signature Haunted Hayride returns with updated features, including new seating options. Set in the eerie foothills of Midnight Falls, the attraction follows the Witch of the Woods as she summons spirits from the underworld to seek revenge on those who cast her out. Riders can expect a mix of supernatural storytelling and spine-chilling encounters along the way.

Monáe Manor
Music and mayhem collide in Monáe Manor, where Halloween icon Janelle Monáe hosts her legendary haunted celebration. Guests will find that nothing is as it seems inside this ghostly mansion, where strange noises, moving walls, and spectral guests create an unforgettable night.

Hellbilly
The Hellbilly maze takes visitors deep into the backwoods of Midnight Falls, home to a rumored cannibalistic family. The twisted clan celebrates Halloween with diabolical tricks and terrifying treats in this backwoods horror experience.

Live Shows and Entertainment
In addition to the mazes, the festival lineup includes live performances such as Madame Aurora’s Séance Theatre and The Monte Revolta Show, ensuring nonstop entertainment throughout the night.

The Los Angeles Haunted Hayride and Halloween Festival continues to be one of Southern California’s most popular seasonal attractions, blending fright, fun, and fall festivities into one unforgettable experience.
