Scare-amount Ranch
October 27, 2017 @ 6:00 pm - 10:00 pm
For nearly 100 years, Paramount Ranch has set the scene for hundreds of movies, TV shows, and photo shoots. That includes a number of monster, paranormal, and other supernatural films and shows, from “The Forbidden Trail” (1932) to “Van Helsing” (2004), and episodes of the X-Files and HBO’s Westworld. In keeping with that theme, the National Park Service will host a first-of-a-kind event on October 27 called Scare-amount Ranch.
The family-friendly Halloween event will combine elements of film history and nature. Kids activities will include making fake movie blood and nocturnal animal-themed crafts. Groups can choose from two self-guided hikes into the backlot woods, one which will family-friendly, the other for those looking for a little scare.
Other activities will include a screening of the 1966 classic Munster, Go Home, which was shot at Paramount Ranch; selfies in the jailhouse; a spider zoo and bug trap; and ranger stations throughout the ranch grounds.
The free event with complimentary parking takes place from from 6:00 to 10:00 p.m. Flashlights and a jacket are recommended.
Paramount Ranch is located at 2903 Cornell Rd, Agoura, CA 91301. For more information, please call the visitor center at 805-370- 2301.
