On select October nights, the Silver Creek & Stephenson Railroad heads into the dark.
A Halloween ride on the rails
Each night, the harsh light of reality fades into darkness. On selected October nights, the club turns the railroad into a ride filled with ghosts, ghouls and scenes created by volunteers along the line.
Past versions of the Train of Terror have included a killer with a bloody machete and flaming torch, a ghost ship whose pirate crew fired cannon, imprisoned lost souls, haunted cemeteries and other elaborate scenes. The details change from year to year, which is part of the experience.
Scenes from past years

Shallow Graves Mortuary is the “last in town to let you down.”Something wicked this way comes. The devil is roaming like a lion seeking whom to devour.You meet the nicest people on the Train of Terror.Other products may promise dramatic weight loss, but the Train of Terror gets results!Is that fence keeping people in or out?These two have been dead for most of their lives, so they still preside over the “dead center of town.”There's nothing like a nice hot bath to make you feel more alive!As the old caption says, “Let the dead bury their dead.”
