Fall is one of the best times of year, especially in Minnesota. It brings beautiful fall colors and perfectly crisp weather that make outdoor activities a blast. Some of the most popular things to do outside include pumpkin patches, hayrides, and corn mazes. But there are many other fall activities in Minnesota, including those of the scary variety. One of this best this year is the Abandoned Drive-Thru. This creepy drive-thru haunted experience is not to be missed this fall. Here’s what you’ll find when you visit:

The Abandoned Hayride. is a popular attraction that gets thousands of visitors every Halloween. It's along Highway 212 in Chaska, right next to popular Scream Town. This year, the hayride is transformed into a new attraction built for 2020.

To enforce social distancing, the regular hayride has been replaced with a drive-through event that is just as terrifying. Cars will travel through a darkened forest filled with creepy sets, special effects, and more than a few costumed ghouls. It's the only event of its kind in Minnesota.

No matter when you visit, one thing remains certain: this event is every bit as frightening as the usual hayride. The owners have gone all out to provide plenty of frights as you drive through the darkened woods. And best of all, you get to stay in your car safe, warm, and contact-free.
