On Friday and Saturday nights in October, a section of the maze will be haunted by many of Parke County's scariest spirits, ghosts, ghouls, and madmen from dusk until close. Only the bravest at heart would dare to venture into the corn on such a night.

Flashlight-Nights at The MAiZE^®:

If navigating the intricate network of twists and turns carved into seven acres of corn during the light of day is not challenging enough for you, consider joining us from dusk until close every night the maze is open for "Flashlight-Nights at The MAiZE^®". The prospect of getting lost in a cornfield at night with only the light of a dim flashlight bulb and a few stars to guide you should provide you with the challenge you seek.

Mini Straw Maze:

The mini straw maze located at Hobson's Farm is a great “warm-up” for The MAiZE^®. The mini straw maze also provides great entertainment for the little ones and those not interested in tackling the larger maze.

Join us in learning about life on Hobson's Farm with our adorable farm animals. Hobson's Farm is populated by a wide variety of farm animals. Rabbits, geese, chickens, cows, goats, even peacocks have been regular inhabitants at Hobson's Farm. You never know what animal will show up next!

Get mesmerized while gazing into the fire at one of our campfire sites. Whether you prefer to reserve a site for private use or to join the community, we have the spot for you. Campfires are excellent ways to gather together, keep warm, or prepare food. The fire pit, wood, and seating are all provided at each site.

Our two acre pumpkin patch has been growing the pumpkin just for you. From small to large and everywhere in between, you are sure to find one that is just right. Looking for gourds to complement your fall decor? We have those too! And don't forget our mums! With over 20 different varieties and multiple color options (including white, yellow, pink/lavender, coral/salmon, orange, bronze, and red), you have quite the selection to choose from. You are sure to find your favorite color growing in one of our 1500 pots. (While supplies last.)

After you work up an a-MAZE-ing appetite with all of our activities, visit the Corn Café concession stand. The Corn Café concession stand can provide you with the drinks and snacks you need to satisfy that hunger. You'll also want to check out our Country Store for a variety of yummy treats and fall-themed gift items.

Take a ride around the fields at Hobson's Farm on our Cow Train or Hayride, experience the unique sensation of playing in our Corn Box (it's cleaner and more fun than any sand-box), stroll through our Friendly Haunted House, root for your favorite pig at our pig races, or test your aim with our Corn Cannon--pure fun and entertainment for kids of all ages.
