By day, Griffith Park is familiar ground.
After dark, it becomes something else entirely.
The Los Angeles Haunted Hayride returns with an immersive night of shadow, fog, theatrical sets and carefully staged scares woven into the landscape of the park.
At the center of it all is the hayride itself — a slow journey through the darkness, where the scenery shifts, the atmosphere thickens and the line between spectacle and surprise becomes increasingly hard to see.
Beyond the ride, guests can explore additional haunted attractions and themed environments designed to extend the experience well into the evening.

It is less a carnival ride than a transformation of place: one of Los Angeles’ most familiar parks recast, for a few autumn nights, as something darker, stranger and beautifully theatrical.
After dark, Griffith Park tells a different story.
