Before the gates open at Flemings Junkyard in Egg Harbor Township, members of the Scullville Volunteer Fire Company prepare for another spooktacular evening of screams. Inside the makeup tent, the magic of the season comes to life as faces are transformed into elaborate thrilling Halloween characters. Thrill seekers line up at the ticket booth to ensure their spot at one of the best frights in the entire region.
Terror in the Junkyard is Scullville Fire Company’s largest fundraiser of the year. Once the light of the day dips below the horizon, you are introduced to clowns, ghouls, and ghouls. As you take a Haunted Hayride through the junkyard, you never know what you will witness along this frightening excursion. For those who are feeling adventurous, the Maze is sure to send shivers down your spine with thrills and chills around every corner.
Terror in the Junkyard is, hands down, one of South Jersey’s most thrilling attractions. Located at 353 Zion Road, it is open Fridays and Saturday from 7-10pm, and Sundays 7-9pm. Hayride tickets are $14 per person, maze tickets are $9, and combo tickets are available for $14. Military and first responders receive a $2 discount.
