Wisconsin's Ultimate
Haunted House Event
Kenosha's scariest Haunted House
Terror takes over the Kenosha County Fairgrounds for select nights during the Halloween season. This isn’t your carnival full of cotton candy and friendly clowns. Evil has moved into the fairgrounds and seeks your screams and tears, instead of your smiles and laughter. Evil carnies, clowns, farmers, and fortune tellers are just a few of the characters looking to provide you with a terrifying time during your visit. The terror starts when you enter through the red barn. Come enjoy the fair, if you dare! Featuring 4 haunted house attractions plus the Midway of Terror.

four terrifying Attractions
TERror at the fair features four haunted attractions and our monster midway.
Night time at the fairgrounds can be dark and foggy. After all, these grounds are in the middle of nowhere. Do you have the courage to follow the murky paths and where they might lead? Will there be fields of beautiful corn on the other end or will you follow the path that leads to the carnival from Hell? The decision is yours…maybe.
When the carnival rolls into town the performers and carnies need somewhere to lay their heads or maybe your heads for that matter! The carnies have set-up residence in one of the barns on the grounds and wait inside for their time to punch in and go to work. Disturbing them while they kick back and relax may not be in your best interest. They tend to get a little upset, and when they get upset things may get a little, “messy.”
Cows, chickens, humans, blood, OH MY! We don’t think the only thing being slaughtered inside is your typical meats for the local grocer. The local farmers may be processing protein from sources of the human kind and they are looking for a special type of grade A meat. Tread lightly through these barn corridors or you may be the next to be hacked up and tossed into the meat grinder.
Enjoy and wander the Midway of Terror as evil carnies, clowns, farmers, and more turn your smiles to screams! When ready enter the attraction line, but always be looking behind you!
Welcome to the carnival! Step right up and face your ultimate fear…Coulrophobia or the fear of clowns! Do we need to say more about the entertainment for the evening? These clowns and performers enjoy entertaining you to death. They also love to make you smile, or maybe take the smile off your face, literally! A slice here. A chop there. They can fix you right up and add you as a twisted attraction to their show.
