Had so much fun the scares the hayride the vibe the price everything was well worth it and the fact they have new stuff every year is so awesome can't wait for the next time read more

We took our daughter and her friends for her 15th birthday and it was a blast. There were 4 haunted experiences that they offer along with treats you can buy. We did splurge on the VIP experience and it was well worth it as it was extremely crowded. There were lots of screams, surprises and laughs had by all. I would highly recommend the Spooky Ranch. read more

Terrrrible terrrible place. It doesn't see. Like much has changed over the years... maybe how they take your money... they may have lumped it into one price. How they treated their animals was disgusting. Here is a picture of my review from when read more

Spooky Ranch - Haunted Houses Near Me - Columbia Station, Ohio

Spooky Ranch is a great Halloween/autumn atmosphere and has become a yearly tradition, but they need to consider revamping the attractions after the same old year in and year out. The hayride and the haunted houses could use at least 5 more live actors in each. Also,some of the props and animitronics, which they rely heavily upon, don't even work. Disappointed that the shaking floor at the beginning of Extreme Nightmares has been removed. There is so much wasted space and opportunity that could truly take this haunt to the next level. read more

If your hesitating about this, don't! You won't regret going here! Lots of fun for the whole family, and not overly scary. The lines can be long, so I recommend going earlier than you expect and doing the hayride first, because the line for that gets ridiculously long. The hayride is a ton of fun and not that scary. The actors are professional and interact with you well. If your looking for a really terrifying, freaky experience this may not be the greatest place, but that depends on what your looking. All in all, a great experience and completely worth it! read more

This place was awful. We got there at 8pm, they closed at 11:30. We paid for 5 attractions. By 9:30 we had only gotten through one haunted house because the line was so long. It seems that VIPs cut the line no matter what and because they were so busy, and everybody was buying VIP passes, regular tickets were worthless. Basically we tried getting our money back because there was no way we were going to be able to see all 5 of the attractions we paid for by closing, and they refused. Didn't budge a little. Kept comparing themselves to Cedar Point because Cedar Point got so busy they had to close so somehow that justifies them selling more tickets than they had capacity to entertain. Was directed to the owner, who also refused to refund tickets. She was very rude and made it clear that she did not value our business. We will never be back. read more

Our first time and didn't know what to expect... Went last night 9/25/2021 with Basic (mild) Package tickets for the haunted hayride and the Monster Vision 3D haunted house for a 12 year old, 11 year old and two 9 year olds. The scare tolerance and thrill seeking level was varied amongst these 4 kiddos. Once there, we increased to Package 1 to add on the Extreme Nightmares and Blood Slingers Saloon haunted houses - TWICE! For our group, the scare level and activities were perfect. We arrived around 7:15 and left around 9:30 pm and were able to do everything with some things twice and grab a snack. (don't arrive before 7 PM or you may catch the staff arriving which could hamper the experience) The staff were helpful at the ticket booth and on the grounds. I'm sure the lines and wait times will be longer the closer to Halloween. Thanks Spooky Ranch! read more

Great time for the entire family. Highly recommend for great family holiday fun. Purchasing your tickets online is really convenient.

Me and my friends went this fall, it was truly amazing. I really recommend the haunted hay ride. it was a great activity for friends, family, couples. read more

They should have called this fun Ranch not Spooky Ranch cuz it was nothing spooky here whatsoever lines are extremely long thought it was going to be great I was deeply let down again second time in a row very few actors nobody knew how to scare. The only thing that was scary was a $25 they charge for this whatever you want to call it. If you come here just pay for the hayride everything else isn't worth it the scare Factor here is 1.5 out of 10. I only gave them the 1.5 just because some people actually tried. read more

See all

I've been to some haunted houses and as for this one I give it five stars. Staff is very polite,accommodating,and welcoming and that's a big deal in my opinion. The kids were beyond excited and they had an awesome time as well as adults. This was our first year here and we will definitely be returning in the upcoming years. This made our family fun night a great night and it is an amazing place. I'd honestly recommend it to people of all ages. Pricing is reasonable and worth the time and money. Best customer service so far! read more

Haunted Houses are, unfortunately for a Halloween Horror Seeker such as me, very hit or miss. I've been to more bad haunted houses where the only horror is how horribly lame the scares are. Thankfully, Spooky Ranch fits into the 'hit' category of awesome haunted houses and lives up to its adjective. With five different Haunted Houses, Spooky Ranch offers scares for everyone - from crazy crowns, creepy barns, to interactive actors - each is a lot of fun. The production is also very good. Everything from the actors to the decor, to the structures themselves are very well done and not too 'fake' looking. The best, product wise, was definitely the Haunted Hayride which had some seriously awesome and impressive animatronics. If you're like me and are somewhat nervous attending a new Haunted House for fear that it may suck and be a ripoff, rest assured you'll be in for a fun and scary night at Spooky Ranch! read more

Was a cute attraction, if you go definitely pay extra for a VIP pass. No social distancing markers and no mask enforcement, strange during a mandate. But still a fun time. Make sure NOT TO GO if the weather is not amazing. I got stuck in their "parking lot" for 45 minutes. The reason for the quotations on parking lot is that it is literally just a field, which would be okay when it's not muddy out. Their workers walked in front of my van as I was leaving, ruining my momentum and leaving me stuck. And instead of addressing it was told to "not be mad at them". Also they are very pushy about reviewing them on Yelp/Google. read more

Stopped by Spooky Ranch last night since it's near my house. I purchased tickets for all the attractions except Zombie Paintball for myself and my 7-year old son. With regards to bedtime, I decided to get there right as they opened at 7pm. My son was extremely excited to go in a real real haunted house, as in the past he's only done more kid-friendly ones. Neither of us were disappointed! Both of us are kind of "laughers," rather than "screamers," but I found that I was creeped out or startled to the point of jumping several times! We went through the saloon first. I was pleased with how long it was, and also glad that I got there early, so we weren't stuck with a huge group of people, as often happens at haunted houses, I've found. Now, I'm more of the type of person who appreciates really "creepy" scenes, rather than those that are loaded with a huge amount of blood and guts. So for me, this was great! I loved walking through various rooms in the saloon, and taking in the decor. Don't get me wrong, there were plenty of actors to jump out and scare you, along with features like puffs of air in your face as you walked by certain areas, which I thought was fun. There was also a cool animatronic feature that scared my son so much that he literally took off running out of one of the rooms! There is a section at the end that, if I were claustrophobic, I think might have put me over the edge, so be warned! My son was a champ throughout, though. I'd say it was successful, since at the end, he said, "I never want to go through that again!" The "Extreme Nightmares" was on par with the first house, just with a different theme. I enjoyed the actor that "welcomes" you into the house with his live rat and snake. I enjoyed petting the rat and the snake, although the snake was a little creepy, since I'm not much of a fan. That is the point, after all, though, right? To be scared or creeped out? Again, I jumped several times, and was again glad I got there early so that I could enjoy the scenes without a bunch of other people breathing down my back. Again, there were lots of actors, and I appreciated that in some cases, rather than just jumping out to scare you, they interacted with you. The 3D house isn't quite as scary as the other two, in my opinion, unless you aren't a fan of clowns. The 3D glasses and paint really were a neat effect, and more fun to look at (like a fun house) than scary. Still totally worth it, and I think it's good for something different. This was my son's favorite of the three houses, probably because it wasn't as traditionally scary. He was weird about wanting to wear the 3D glasses in the beginning, so he didn't want to grab a pair. A little ways in, though, I gave him mine, and I loved hearing his repeated "Whoas!" and "That's cools!" as he looked at the 3D effects. Perhaps surprisingly, the hayride did not disappoint either. After walking through the 3 houses, it was a nice break, and it felt good to just sit down and enjoy the ride. My favorite features of the hayride were a fire feature that you encounter during the ride, as well as the barn at the end, with a really creepy animatronic dragon that comes out and kind of "dances" over the hay wagon. There was another little boy about my son's age on the wagon, who was so terrified that he curled up into a ball and actually started clinging to random strangers to protect him. That was fun to watch, especially with my son trying to tell him, "Dude! It;'s not real!" Lol. The kid was okay in the end and stood up all proud and macho, pretending he wasn't scared at all. Oh... I almost forgot about the water feature! Keep your eyes peeled and pay attention, or you might get nailed like I did with a stream of water. I'm glad it was warm last night. We had a great time, and I'll definitely be heading back next year! I may even go again this year and take my son to the more kid-friendly daytime event so he can do another hayride, paint a pumpkin, and see some farm animals! read more

so fing bad. for like 5 year old kids. waste of money. so expensive for literally no reason. dont waste your time or money. go somewhere else read more

this was my first time here and i don't usually get scared often but this places haunted houses scared me!! very affordable for the amount of activities they have to do. will be coming back again:) read more

First time there, very well setup, good value, went as a family with my wife and 10 and 8 yr olds. They had some scares. Everyone was very professional and no touching was enforced. Only complaint is the lack of actors but chalked it up as being early in the season, they definitely need more actors read more

As a local I was hoping to say that this haunted house is a lot of fun, unfortunately I cannot. The props are outdated, and instead of having people scare you they rely on props which don't move. Very disappointed that a good childhood favorite has now turned to garbage... I will not be back. read more

The haunted houses were great and the fun house is ok but the hay ride sprays the trailer full of people with freezing cold water in the face and ears when it's 42 degrees outside. read more

We thought we were in for good scares with the ratings being in the top 10 scariest. We were entertained at parts but not scared. We encountered an employee with an awful attitude yelling at customers and just plain rude while we waited to enter one of the attractions. more time was spent waiting in line that being "scared". there were not many actors overall was disappointed. read more

Definitely GO! We had so much fun,our 6 kids ages 11 mos thru 15 years had a blast. The haunted houses are the best I've ever seen. The hayride was very well put together also. Worth every penny. We will definitely be back next year. read more

I go to a lot of haunted houses every year and Spooky Ranch is my favorite! Too notch acting and scenes. The hayride is fun and the houses are actually, unlike most haunts, very scary. The employees are very friendly and helpful. read more
