Experience the haunting tale of a local crime and tragic loss.

'Wicked Elizabeth Wilson', is a theatrical firelight tour around the Farmstead of one of the most heinous crimes imaginable. In the year 1785, Elizabeth Wilson of Delaware County was accused of infanticide and put on trial. Some say she fell in love with the wrong man, and that he actually committed the crime, then threatened her into silence. You will have the chance to hear her story and decide at her trial. Either way her case, unresolved to this day, changed the law forever...



Teens and Tweens will enjoy The Bates Motel & Haunted Hayride, which has been voted the #1 haunt in the country and has been featured on the Travel Channel.
