Absolutely not! This is the best not-so-spooky event around and part of what makes Dutch Wonderland the World's Best Family Park.

YES! We love to see all of your costumes. There are a few rules, however. Adults and children are welcome to wear their Halloween costumes to Happy Hauntings at Dutch Wonderland. We ask all guests in costume to keep the family-friendly nature of the event in mind when choosing to wear their costumes to the Park. Guests 13 and older are not permitted to wear masks to the Park during Happy Hauntings and should refrain from wearing costumes that are frightening, gory or inappropriate in nature for a family amusement park. Dutch Wonderland reserves the right to ask a Guest to remove any costume deemed inappropriate for our Park. Also, costumes, or portions of costumes may need to be removed on some rides for safety reasons. No toy weapons are permitted.

Happy Hauntings is included for our Gold and Platinum passholders as part of their unlimited admission. You can learn more about Season Passes here.
