Knott’s Berry Farm just announced its line up for returning mazes for the 2022 Scary Farm season. Very similar to last year, there is a well shot video announcing the mazes in a really fun and spooky way! Check out that video below!

We’ve noticed a lot more interest in Knott’s Scary Farm from folks who don’t live in SoCal or even California. If you’ve never been or are unsure of what Knott’s Scary Farm is then look no further. Knott’s Scary Farm is the largest and most haunting Halloween event in Southern California, with unimaginable scares and innovative thrills that can’t be found anywhere else. The fully transformed theme park features uniquely haunted mazes and attractions, sinister shows, and more than 1,000 horrifying creatures lurking in the fog and hiding in every corner of the park. These haunted attractions have the ingredients of a truly terrifying nightmare. But unlike most dreams, Knott’s Scary Farm is a nightmare you can’t wake up from — which makes it the thing to do for Halloween.

Scary Farm is simply stellar every single year. We can never get enough, which is why we buy the Scary Farm season pass. That way, we can scream within the fog all season long. Below you’ll find information regarding the returning mazes to Knott’s Scary Farm for 2022.
