It is officially autumn. This means chilly weather, falling leaves and pumpkin spice flavored everything. Just because it’s chilly doesn’t mean you have to spend your days inside. There are tons of places near Stockbridge that can fulfill your fall needs.

1. Pregizter Farm Market

During October, Pregizters opens their fall attractions. These consist of a hay ride, corn maze and pumpkin patch. Their “U-Pick Pumpkin Patch” costs $5 for one normal sized pumpkin and $1 for their mini pumpkins. Once you purchase your pumpkin, you can pay extra to paint them. They also sell cider and donuts. Pregizters offers a free petting zoo and a place to purchase feed if you want to feed them. Pregitzers is a year-round farm stand that sells all kinds of fresh, seasonal, fruits and vegetables.

2. Terrorfied Forest

Experience the darkness and the monsters within on this short walk, or run, through the woods. The Terrorfied Forest is an outdoor haunted attraction that takes you through a dimly lit path in the woods. General admission is $25 per person and a VIP pass is $35. The VIP pass lets you get to the front of the line almost instantly. This is a non-touch haunt, meaning none of the actors are allowed to touch you. They also offer a “monster repellent” at the ticket booth that keeps the actors farther away from you.

145 Swarthout Rd, Pinckney, MI 48169 Open 8pm-2am

3. Bestmaze Corn Maze

This corn maze is called “Bestmaze” for a reason. This maze can take about an hour to finish.

Bestmaze also sells warm cider and donuts for before or after you finish the maze. Bestmaze is open until October 30th this year, and will not be open again. 2022 is their last year, so go soon!

4. Awaken

For the braver souls, this haunted house is a great place for you. Awaken perfectly sets the spooky mood for Halloween. This haunted house offers 4 different attractions to go through for $25 per person. You will first enter Awaken, then head through “Terror-Phobia 3D maze” then back into Awaken, head outside to “The Forgotten” a strobed out pallet maze with actors chasing you. From there you will continue outdoors to “Tenebrous” an abandoned village of old boat houses, shacks and graveyards. You will then re-enter “The Forgotten” for a stroll up to the entrance of “Awaken” for the remainder of your time. Bring a friend—you’ll need one—because there are over 32,000 square feet of terror both inside and out. Awaken also offers an evil lab themed 5 minute escape room for an extra $15. You’ll either beg for more or beg to leave.
