There are no “jump scares” at Spooktacular, but we recommend you come prepared with flashlights to help navigate dark areas. Furry friends are welcome to attend the event; however, we kindly ask that dogs remain on leash and away from Mountsberg’s live animals.
NEW! The Case of the Missing Pumpkins Scavenger Hunt
Alien’s have crashed their Starship at Mountsberg and we need your help to get them home in time for Halloween!
Meanwhile, Professor P. Dunkel, Radiation Specialists, and Dr. Brian Le Cerveau, DNA Specialist, have been working hard on a secret project to increase the size of pumpkins. Their research and advanced technology may be the key in helping our intergalactic visitors return to their planet.
Mysterious happenings are taking places within the forest and Professor P. Dunkel is now missing, along with all of the pumpkins!
Join Lead Detective, Enola O’Butternut, on our NEW scavenger hunt to become an official Mounstberg Junior Detective and help us crack the Case of the Missing Pumpkins.
