For over two decades, Haunt Park has been delivering screams, thrills, and chills to West Michigan. As Kalamazoo’s only haunted scream park, we bring you four unique attractions in one location—a full night of fear and fun for every age and scare level. Now, there is a new way to experience the thrills of the Haunt Park with the inaugural Haunt Park 5K! Taking place on October 3rd, the Haunt Park 5K gives daring participants a sneak peek at the thrills of the scream park.
The 5K will be chipped time and start at 7:15p in the Psycho Ward, which is just a few minutes before the sun sets on the Speedway and moments before the fun begins.
Participants finisher medal and everyone registered before 9/12/26 will receive a Haunt Park 5K shirt. All participants will also receive a haunted themed race bib. There will be an award for the overall male and female finishers, with age group awards for top finishers.
