Weather Closure October 28th

Oct 28, 2022 | Haunted Attraction

Friday Night POSTPONED Natchitoches in the projected path of inclement weather and the safety of our guests and cast is our greatest priority — therefore we will be closed on Friday October 28, 2022. At this time, all of Dark Woods’ attractions are scheduled to re-open by Saturday, October 29th. We continue to closely monitor the weather and will share operational updates as needed. For guests who have pre-purchased tickets or scheduled time-slots, we’ve got you covered. According to Dark Woods’ Severe Weather Policy – “If you have purchased tickets online, we will honor them any open night during the regular season. All sales are final. No refunds will be issued.” But whether you are planning to visit the park or not, those traveling to Louisiana and those in Louisiana should proceed with caution. We hope everyone stays safe during the storm. See you soon!
