Halloween Fun At Szalay's Farm


Yes, just yesterday I said that I would be spending the entire weekend in the Cemetery garage, working away on this year's prop list... but sunny skies and 80 degree temperatures in October in Northeast Ohio was just too good of an opportunity to pass up. So we jumped into the car and headed down to Szalay's Farm in the Cuyahoga Valley to experience their annual Halloween festivities: carton after carton of incredible pumpkins, freshly grilled corn on the cob straight from their cornfields, a market full of fresh fall fruits and vegetables, a hayride, various Halloween photo opportunities, their spinning vortex tunnel, and most of all, their annual corn maze!

The weather brought people out from all corners and the entire place was packed, but the Fall and Halloween vibes were in full swing and we still had a blast. I must have been in an extra good mood because I even shelled out for some expensive giant, gnarly pumpkins for this year's display!

The best, of course, was their corn maze, laid out in the shape of a dragon with eight stations set up with different movie-themed scenes. The corn was tall this year so it almost felt like walking through a corn tunnel as we followed the map. 

After walking the entire maze and visiting each scene, we headed home with our goodies. And, I was still able to get back in time to finish up a really great prop for this year's display (I CANNOT WAIT to share this one with you!)
















  

Creeps In The Corn Maze


This weekend we made it out to Szalay's Farm, a local corn farm and market that puts together a great little seasonal Halloween production each October. Tons of pumpkins, fresh roasted corn, spooky decorations, live music, a paintball shooting gallery, hay wagon rides, a vortex tunnel, and my favorite - a corn maze!

We paid our admission, got our map, and set out to find all the numbered stations within. The corn grew tall this year, and it made it extra spooky as we went deep into their cornfield to visit the setup at each station...



Oh, and just in case you haven't yet, feel free to visit and throw a few likes on the Highbury Cemetery Instagram page. Tons of Halloween photos throughout October and beyond!!
