#KnottsScaryFarm, the Halloween transformation of #KnottsBerryFarm in #BuenaPark, #California, began as a two-night event - Friday & Saturday, 26 & 27 October 1973 - then known as "#KnottsHalloweenHaunt," with the inaugural "#GhostHost" #SinisterSeymour (#LarryVincent) from local #LosAngeles stations KHJ-TV and KTLA fame leading the crowd into the fog. And the rest, as is said, is history.

Each week of Knott's Scary Farm during the 2023 season, a new episode will be available at Midnight (12 a.m. PDT) Friday morning, featuring another incredible talent behind the event with a one-on-one interview by Nick Pagliochini.

We'll see you in the fog...for Knott's Scary Farm's 50th Anniversary!
