Lanterns light your way through an 18th-century fort and fur trading village overrun by werewolves, witches, goblins and ghouls. Storytellers weave spooky folktales near bonfires and treats such as hot mulled cider, cookies and candy can be found throughout the site. Most stops are suitable for all ages, but a haunted house, demon walk and werewolf walk will give thrills and chills to adults and children alike. Photo: Aaron Thompson. October 2-3, 2026, 6:30 p.m. – 9:30 p.m. Last admission at 8:30 p.m. both nights. Fort Fright is based on folktales found in Were-Wolves and Will-O-The-Wisps: French Tales of Mackinac Retold.
