Fundraiser for Baxter Fun Days, staffed by enthusiastic volunteers. 1/2 mile walk through a nature trail, with many steps up and down along the way. In past years, they would give you a flashlight which you will need to see the ground in front of you (or the things around you, or above you). Random scenes along the way almost always feature multiple actors (we counted EIGHT in one scene). They use "tag team scares" where someone will try to get you, followed by another (and sometimes, several more). There are strobe lights along the path (TONS of them) and a "fog tunnel" near the end. Wear good outdoor walking shoes. Watch for big steps up and down throughout the trail. They were letting groups in every 5 minutes, so wait times can be long. Get there early.
