 The Ultimate Halloween Adventure game including 2 haunted houses, free food, free fangs, and free gas!
The Danger Run is a Halloween game played in your car with your friends. You will get a book of clues which you have to solve to find your way to 2 haunted houses included with your admission. In a way, it is a lot like a scavenger hunt but you are looking for haunts. The object of the game is to complete the course and make as few mistakes as possible. The top 50 groups to get closest to the exact mileage of the course will compete in the Danger Run Finals! Admission also includes free fangs, free food, and if you have 4 or more in your car free gas! It is an entire night of Halloween entertainment unlike any other.
