Haunted Wagon Rides

The silver moonlight bathes the land as you approach the wagon parked in the centre of the path, huddled in the center of the family. Clutching your coat a little tighter in the chill October breeze, you hop aboard… when something further ahead catches your eye.

The Headless Horseman and his ghostly steed stand a few feet ahead, but you and your family only manage a quick glimpse of the legendary myth before his horse rears and takes off into the fields ahead of you. As the wagon begins to follow his lead with a creak, random mumbles and whispers from the bushes give little warning of the ghouls and spooks that jump at your wagon from the sidelines. Howls and whinnies echo from further ahead-- barely heard above the din of fear from your own cart!

But there is one comfort amongst the dark of the night… your own mighty steeds, faithfully guiding you through the fields of fright with bravery and courage! And as you return to the start of your path, having carefully navigated the perilous journey (where their majesty may just be stunning enough to outshine the Headless Horseman himself): you have survived the Haunted Wagon Ride, and shall go on with another amazing Shelby Ranch experience!

COVID VACCINATION PASSES - Due to the mandatory mandate it is now mandatory for Shelby Ranch to check for vaccination passes when you arrive at the ranch by not doing so we run the risk of receiving a $11,600 fine as well as the participant runs the risk of receiving a fine.

MANDATORY MASKS - Thankfully we are lucky enough to have such a large property to be able to socially distance from one another during your visit at the ranch please wear your mask on the wagon as we are unable to set people 6 feet apart. While you are walking around at the ranch you are not required to wear your mask outside but we do ask that you keep 6ft distance from other ranch guests and staff.

DEPARTURE TIMES - Please be patient while you wait for your wagon departure as we are working with live animals so not every departure will be right on time.

Please note if you have booked a 6:30pm time slot your departure will be delayed just until it is dark enough to be able to enjoy the fun and spooky lights along our path.

CHECKING IN- When you arrive at the ranch Shelby ( the ranch owner ) will be awaiting your arrival you can find her in the barn yard around our bonfire pit area. She will ask for your tickets as well as your vaccination passes. Please have these screenshots and ready to view to be able to make the check in process run smoothly. Please remember that the location of our ranch does not always have the best cell phone reception so having this prepared ahead of time would be great.
