2008 DATES & HOURS: We recently received confirmation that Pirate Cave will be back this year. The haunt operates on Halloween Night, dusk till 10:00pm
ADMISSION & PARKING: FREE INFORMATION: The Pirate Cave first materialized in 2003. As the name implies, this one features a painted flat suggesting a pirate ship, along with dancing fireflies and a murky harbor in the front yard. Next to this, a giant skull with flaming eyes sits atop the entrance to a walk-through maze representing the pirate’s cave. Inside, you’ll see a floating spirit and a ghoul or two lurking in the shadows, before you reach the “treasure” buried within - a cask of candy, naturally enough. With an emphasize on cool decor instead of intense scares, this is a fun little walk-through haunt - good enough for adults, safe enough for children - whose pirate theme and home-made props distinguish it from several other amateur Halloween efforts.
REVIEW: We reviewed the Pirate Cave in our 2006 Halloween Odyssey.
