I-4's premier fear park is a one of a kind outdoor haunted trail totaling almost 1 mile in scares.
Sir Henry’s Haunted Trail, located between Orlando and Tampa, will welcome fans for their tenth year open, as of Fall 2024. Visible from Exit 22 on Interstate 4, the central Florida haunted attraction has operated as a 501(c)3 - raising funds for nonprofits, providing volunteer hours for hard working youths, and the source of countless screams.
“Our official ten year anniversary will be October 3rd of this year,” says attraction owner Zach Glaros. “We will have to officially celebrate with the fans the following night, Friday the 4th, so that prior night on Thursday, I will celebrate the milestone privately with close friends and family who also sacrificed to help make this all happen.”
Parking is free with admission, which ranges from $27 to $57 per person, per night. Season passes will also be available on site. Tickets must be purchased in advance. This is done to prevent overcrowding and give customers the best experience possible.
Fall events at Sir Henry’s Haunted Trail feature three open trails - each with a unique storyline. There is also a haunted hayride, upcharge experiences such as escape games, and courtyard entertainment that is all rated PG13 and up. These themes, as well as operating dates and hours, are available at SirHenrysHauntedTrail.com.
Sir Henry’s has also expanded with similar projects such as Sir Henry’s Haunted Summer Camp.
In July of 2024, participants aged 12 to 17 learned future skills needed to work at a haunted attraction. Public figures such as WWE’s Byron Saxton volunteered in the endeavor to mentor young thrill seekers towards theme park, entertainment, and horror career paths.
Sir Henry’s also provides an in-depth podcast for fans to get behind the scenes information about upcoming offerings at the haunt. There is also a trilogy book series about the iconic characters, and a new cook book released this Fall that also details the attraction’s decade of history.
Extended offerings of the haunt are an accessibility night, or an alternative accessibility discount for guests who utilize mobility devices, have sensory challenges, or other disabilities that will otherwise prevent them from fully enjoying the attraction. Further accessibility measures based on feedback will be implemented over the years to continue making the experience as equitable as possible.
“Florida has some of the top accessible beaches in the country, and globally recognized accessible themed attractions,” says Glaros. “I think it is a great goal to aim for, for all fans to feel included in the scares.”
The crown jewel of the Fall 2024 event will be a completely new trail that was rebuilt from scratch, and pays tribute to the historic State of Florida. Glaros utilized his educational background in History towards the plot of trail entitled “AGUA DE MUERTE." This spook trail is modeled after Saint Augustine, the Castillo de San Marcos, Ponce de Leon’s Fountain of Youth, and the town’s infamous paranormal footprint.
