Nightmare on First Street

Additional Information

The time is nearly ripe for the re-emergence of ​Fountain’s ​​Nightmare on First                 Street: Field of Screams and Haunted Barn , called by many “The Best Haunted              Event Ever!” For the eighth year, this spooky non-profit fundraiser is set to chill                and thrill patrons.     Funds raised this year will benefit Good Earth Village, a non-profit leadership center, summer camp, and retreat facility nestled in the bluffs near Spring     Valley, MN, whose volunteers will be helping to run ​Nightmare. Help may also                 come from the Chatfield High School Service Club.    Each year ​Nightmare is different from the last. Routes are changed, walls are moved, and details abound. This year the Field of Screams has grown even more,  and a second building has been expanded. Hundreds of hours every year go into the metamorphosis of this scary delight. Attendees can expect creepy scenes, hand-carved pumpkins, a labyrinth, screams and moans, surprises and scares, live actors, and maybe even an apparition of DEATH.     Creating and hosting this six-night event are the Little family of Fountain, Paul                    Regan, Logan, and Demery. Numerous others help with the presentation of the          event. Depending on how quickly you walk through, expect ​Nightmare to be an              approximately twenty or more minute spooky entertainment experience.    The theme this year is ​The Wild and Haunted West​​. You may discover ghosts of                               Wyatt Earp, Doc Holliday, Bad Bob the Miner, Sam McGee, Navajo Skinwalkers,           Silver Heels, El Muerto, Bigfoot, Hell Dogs of Eldorado Canyon, and so much more!    Nightmare ’s gory glory runs ​October 19th, 20th, and 21st, and October 26th,                   27th, and 28th (​​Friday, Saturday, & Sunday the last two weekends of October)​;              7:00 to 10:00 p.m. each night​​. Special “lower scare” requests can be made for               those who prefer their spookiness with less “pop.”     Nightmare on First Street: Field of Screams and Haunted Barn lurks around  and behind ​609 First Street, The Dead End, in Fountain, Minnesota​​. Minimum donation requested is ​$8 per person​​. Find out more at  nightmareonfirststreet.com and Facebook.
