Fall is in full swing here in Elizabethtown, KY, and October isn't slowing that down! A month full of events is waiting for you, plan your stay and come see us!

Local Haunts

Things start off really strong on October 3 with the Morrison Lodge Masonic Haunted House. Take a trip through a haunted Masonic Lodge and hear stories of Etown's past in a ghoulish way. This haunted house will be open every Saturday night from October 3 until October 31, and will give you a night full of ghost stories and family-fun. Tickets are $5, and this is such a great way to get into the Halloween spirit. The haunts don't stop there, though! On October 23 & 24, the Hardin County Playhouse will be bringing the spooks on their annual Ghost Walk. This event takes guests through tales of Elizabethtown's history as you walk through Downtown and listen to ghost stories of days before. If you're interested in haunts and history, this is for you. Also happening from October 24 until November 1, is the Haunted Trail at The Last House on Springhurst. This nightly self-guided trail is filled with ghoulishly good times and makes for the perfect addition to your itinerary.
