The spooky season is upon us, which means it's time to create a stash of your favorite candies, visit a pumpkin patch to find the perfect jack-o'-lantern, and compile a list of scary movies to watch with your friends and family. Another way to celebrate Halloween this year is to visit a haunted house or brave a frightening hayride through the woods. Luckily for you, there are several establishments around Broken Arrow that are sure to deliver scares you'll want to experience over and over again.
Psycho Path Haunted Attraction

Invite a few of your brave friends for a night of spookiness and fun at the
Psycho Path Haunted Attraction. The establishment is in Sperry, which is 30 minutes away from Broken Arrow. Muster up the courage to enter The Shadow Box, a haunted house that's over 4,000 square feet of terror. As you skulk through the dark hallways, you'll encounter creepy sounds and see things that are beyond your wildest imagination. The attraction designs the house to make you tremble until you reach the other side.
If you have yet to cower in fear, then you may be brave enough to handle The Dark Ride. You can journey through the dark woods amidst hooting owls and howling coyotes for 20 terrifying minutes. Since the vehicle trails along the path with virtually no noise, you'll be forced to rely on your hearing and sight to be aware of what creatures surround you. Remember to purchase your tickets on the attraction's website in advance to gain admission into the haunted house and amusement ride.

Haunted Castle Halloween Festival
The
Halloween Festival at the Castle of Muskogee promotes a variety of haunted activities to inspire your future nightmares. Dare to take a tour of Murder Castle, where the darkness and eerie quietness will be too much for comfort. Next, recruit your friends for a fight for survival as you aim to eradicate a deadly zombie outbreak in a tower. The Trail of Blood attraction is as gory as its name implies, so brace yourself to be stranded in the backwoods where horrifying forces lurk in the darkness.
You can also opt for a chilling experience the Domus Horrificus, an attraction that welcomes bad guys from scary movies to hunt you. Other fear-inducing adventures at the castle include an ultimate maze, which challenges you to find the right path before nightmarish parties find you, and the Torture Chamber, which unleashes creatures from their burials in ancient tombs. Calm yourself down with lighter Halloween fun, such as the train that takes you on a pirate-themed voyage through a forest.

The Hex House
Warm up your vocal cords for a night of nonstop screaming at
The Hex House in Tulsa. The Halloween attraction invites you to immerse yourself in a dreadful tale that stems from Tulsa's history. You'll feel a chill in your bones as you creep through menacing corridors with malfunctioning lights and rooms that exhibit more creepiness than a scary movie.
What's unique about the Hex House is it allows you to step into the haunted house and experience the horrific events as if you really lived then, its scariness doesn't rely on cameos from villains from famous horror films, and the setting isn't a replica from what you've already experienced on screen. Instead, you're encountering an unfamiliar place and learning about a story for the first time, making it hard for you to know what the attraction has in store.

Wicked Forest of Terror
As its name suggests, the
Wicked Forest of Terror delivers an experience that will resonate with you long after you leave the establishment. The horrifying festivities begin on the last Saturday in September and last until Halloween, providing plenty of time for you to exhibit bravery or cower away in fear. Your visit requires an hour-and-a-half drive to the state's capital, but the promise of a spooky adrenaline rush makes the journey well worth it. You can explore the woods once darkness falls on the land. Don't be surprised if you spot monsters lurking behind the trees.
Wicked Forest of Terror can serve as an ideal destination for young children who enjoy the spooky holiday, as long as you participate before the full moon emerges. Embark on your adventure through the woods with the guarantee of no monsters while still admiring the sinister atmosphere. You can purchase your tickets ahead of time online. Consider minimizing your wait time by buying a speed pass or instant pass for an extra charge.

Guthrie Haunted Scaregrounds

Guthrie Haunted Scaregrounds. There's over 30,000 square feet of space for you to encounter creatures that will raise the hairs on the back of your neck, including areas both inside and outside. Fortunately, you won't have to fear spending your Friday or Saturday night on an empty stomach. The attraction provides food trucks for you to refuel before preparing to conquer goblins and ghosts on the scaregrounds. As one of the first 100 brave patrons to enter the premises, you can also receive a free T-shirt.
