Itinerary:
The Farm of Fear is a spooky annual Hallowe'en event at the Edmonton Corn Maze.

The EOC last visited the Farm of Fear in 2009, and were so traumatised that we couldn't go back in 2010! :-)
However, we are a brave bunch at the EOC, so we will venture back this year!

The details about what they will be doing are kept under wraps, although you may meet a variety of spooky "characters" (as well as your spooky co-ordinator, Ian M.). We will get to wander through haunted buildings next to the corn maze, where we will be frightened by people who will jump out at us and/or chase us, sending our adrenaline levels rising! (possibly)

It should take us about an hour to experience the Farm of Fear.

We will meet at 7:00PM near the line for buying tickets.

To help spot me, I will be wearing a yellow EOC ballcap. However, since it will be dark when we arrive and quite busy with other members of the general public milling around, I would also strongly encourage you to carry a cell-phone and give me a call, in case you get lost and/or cannot find us.

We will likely be waiting in line for 20-30 minutes (so dress appropriately for the weather) before we are able to enter the haunted buildings, and then we will venture into the unknown for 15-30 minutes. Who knows what horrors will await us?!

The Edmonton Corn Maze is located just outside of Edmonton, and isn't accessible by public transit. Please email me on ijm1903@yahoo.co.uk by Wednesday Oct 26th at the latest to let me know if you need a ride to this event, or if you are willing to drive people. I can also be contacted on 780 983 9374.

How to Get There:
Event Directions:The Edmonton Corn Maze is just past west Edmonton, in Parkland County.

To find the maze, take the Anthony Henday to Lessard Rd (approximately 45th ave). Turn west on Lessard Rd. Turn left onto 199 st at the t- intersection and continue south to 23rd ave (the first stop sign). Turn right at 23rd ave and continue 5 km west. The maze is located on the southside of the road. A detailed map with directions can be obtained from the corn maze website.

We'll meet by the line-up to purchase tickets to the Farm of Fear. Look for me wearing a bright yellow EOC baseball cap.
