SILVERWOOD Athol, Idaho
Park News - (8/20/2024) Silverwood has announced that for the 15th season, the park will transform into Scarywood Haunted Nights for the Halloween season, on select nights from Sept. 27 through to Nov. 2, 2024. “NEW for 2024, get ready for The Swine. Once upon a nightmare, three little KILLER pigs lived in a large cornfield, hidden from the world behind towering stalks and twisted vines. These were no ordinary pigs; they were clever, vengeful creatures, their hooves stained with blood. These pigs didn’t fear the big, bad wolf—in fact, they relished hunting him down, along with anyone foolish enough to enter their deadly maze. This is not a fairy tale, but the dark, forgotten chapter of the story you thought you knew.” According to Sara Meddock, Public Relations Manager, The Swine will scare even the most well-composed guest. “The new haunt is so terrifying, you’ll never want to eat bacon again,” Meddock said. “And for those who join us year after year, we are bringing back a fan favorite. Be on the lookout for Pig Mama because she’s angry. And nobody wants to cross an angry hog.” Also new this year will be a Trick or Treat Scare Zone, and four beloved haunts will return: Chuckles 3D Sideshow, Planet Zombie: Lights Out, Blood Bayou and Pharoah’s Curse.
