I had plenty of room to walk around and capture different angles without feeling cramped or getting in the way of people. The lighting was great as well, i did use some lights for custom shots.

Also there is a Bar/kitchen area in the back for serving drinks or food keeping the event and serving food separated eliminating any distractions during a special performance.

We moved to Bakersfield almost two years ago from Georgia. We found out about Halloween town last…read moreyear too late, it was close to closing time. This year, we went every other day. They changed their pricing to free admission, and you pay only for what you ride or do. Some things are free. They grown their own pumpkins and corn, which is SOOOO COOOOL. They have a corn maze and corn pit where the kids can swim in an ocean of corn. Be ready to leave with corn in your underwear if you get in. There are pony rides, singing pumpkins, a tube slide, bouncy castles, and this year they had barrel rides. I saw someone comment that the hay ride was nothing more than driving around the lot and looking at storage. That was 100% untrue. Last year the hayride rode through a scary tunnel and it was nicely decorated for Halloween. This year the barrels rode by the haunted house, which was enough of a scare for smaller children. My daughter, who is 7, loved it. Children don't see the world the way we do. Where an adult is riding and criticizing, like the reviewer, the children are happy to be on something new, moving. My daughter wanted to go to Halloween Town EVERY DAY, so we tried! Since admission was free, it really made that easier on us. She is obsessed with anything to do with Halloween so imagine how it went when we had to explained they were going to be closed for a little while. I'm hoping they will plan more festivities throughout the year. There aren't a lot of places for children to go in Bakersfield, and this family have devoted their lives to making a place where families can do things together at an affordable price. I talked to the owner and she said that was their inspiration. For anyone to give a bad review of their farm is upsetting because they certainly don't have to do the things they're doing. I'm sure the cost of admission barely covers what it costs to pay their bills. As a community, we should support local businesses. This is one deserving of support. Aside from that they have a beautiful thing going and Bakersfield children finally have a place, centrally located, to enjoy! It's too bad they can't grow Christmas trees! Maybe little palm trees? The haunted house, is AMAZING! They put a lot of work into it. I cant wait to see what they come up with next year!

However I still love every show I've seen and look forward to many more!
