Haunted Trolley Rides

This community favorite will have two different ride options throughout the night. Earlier in the night, the trolley rides will go through Williamsville for a "not-so-scary" hayride, but stick around later in the evening for the haunted trolley ride full of scares and frights while touring the town's spookiest spots.

The spooky hayride is $10/person or $5/person. Board the trolley at the Old Bank Building and get off at the Price-Prather House to enjoy the Bombsell Babes Cabaret!
