Headless Horseman Hayrides and Haunted Houses

The Headless Horseman Hayrides and Haunted Houses is an outdoor haunted attraction in the Hudson Valley area of New York. It is located in Ulster Park, about from Kingston, New York. This haunted attraction covers and includes a hay ride, corn maze, and five haunted houses. 
Background.
The hayride opened for the Halloween season in 1992, stemming from a disguise business Michael Jubie developed during his time as an undercover police officer, as well as the couple's love of Halloween. As of 2015 it featured twelve distinct attractions and employed over 350 people during the season. Headless Horseman Hayrides and Haunted Houses is located on a , 200-year-old farm.
Attractions.
Hayride.
Patrons are first taken on a hay ride on a wagon which holds 25–30 customers. Customers are given ample opportunity to be scared by actors during the trip, which is facilitated by a "storyteller," another actor who is on the wagon for the ride. Each year the hayride has a different theme, and the storyteller narrates the tale, interacts with other characters, and sets the mood for customers. The veteran actors along the trail attend regular acting classes to sharpen their scaring skills. There is some debate about the ideal place to sit on the wagon for the most enjoyment, but the hayride is scary enough to cause some customers to jump off the wagon, or knowingly leave valuable possessions behind.
Corn maze.
The corn maze is the third stage in the visit. Numerous actors are hidden in a one-way (i.e., customers cannot make a wrong turn and lose their way) maze to scare passersby.
Haunted houses.
Several haunted houses, each designed with a new theme annually, are also part of H5.
The Creature.
Appearing in 2007, the Creature was a -long inflated attraction that appeared to be a sleeping dinosaur or dragon. Customers passed through the mouth and walked past internal organs on their way through to the back end.
Other activities.
H5 includes several other attractions, including four eating establishments (Croaked Crow Cafe, Evil Eatery, Witch Hazel's and Deadly Doughnut), four gift shops (Magic Moon Gifts, Ghoulish Gifts, Phantom Photos, and Scarewear), and other entertainers.
Frosty Fest.
In 2007 relaunched "Frosty Fest," a Christmas-themed event that had originally been conceived and attempted early in the attraction's run.
