Firehouse Fright Night 2026The 19th annual Firehouse Fright Night trail of terrors inside the huge corn maze at Watson Farms! Dare to enter a space teeming with spooky creatures for this year's theme - "The Harvest!" Check out our spooky theme reveal trailer when in late September.
2287 Durham Regional Hwy 2, Bowmanville, ON L1C 3K3, Canada

EARLY GHOUL SPECIAL (2024 price!) until 12:30am Sept 21st!
Interactive, story-driven trail (about 20 mins to walk through)

Oct 14 (7-9pm), 15, 16 17th (7pm-10pm)

Over 30 scenes spread across GIANT corn maze!
80+ characters that will seek you out as you travel
Safety Note -> Loud sounds, strobe lights, fog, and other special effects in use!
Great for all ages and especially for families (and date nights!)
Snacks/treats (giant cookies, candy apples, etc) for sale at the exit just $3ea or 2/$5
NOTE: If you have come other years, you know we also had a Wagon Ride for you! But this year the corn is right near the parking lot, so no need for the Wagon this time. Sorry - we like that part too! But lots of action as soon as you arrive by the big green barn!
NEW this year - we'll have something you can take home with you that lets you proudly share your Fright Night survival! A cool, inexpensive, warm "something". Stay tuned!

Parents - you know best what your kids enjoy for a good scare. We have seen kids age 5 and less who are fascinated and love the experience, and we have seen teens who can't make it past the clowns (oh yes, there will be creepy clowns folks!) We leave it to you to decide if its the right fit for your kids. We do also provide a "magic" word just before you enter; something you can shout out to scare the monsters back...a little bit.

This event wouldn't be possible without the exceptional, generous support of Watson Farms and Paul Watson in particular. Thank you for hosting our monsters year after year!

-=> ABOUT TICKETS
You buy 1 ticket per person, for a booked time.
Discounted prices are shown for buying 4 or more tickets!
Like every year, we absorb the service fees!
Compare us to other events - we are 35% to 80% less expensive than any other spooky event out there, but with the a huge and uniquely interactive experience!
You will be sent in as a group
If you have more than 6 in your party, we will split you into multiple groups at the trail entrance
If you are less than 6 in your party, we will send smaller groups in as one larger group
Tickets are sold online only for booked times.
It is CRITICAL you arrive 20 minutes before your time.
Example, if your ticket is for 7:00 - 7:10pm, you must arrive by 6:40pm.
This is because we cannot just "slip you in" if you are late. It would push everyone else out of their time slot and that is not fair to them. There are no refunds if you are late.
Your ticket will come to you as an E-mail, and you need to bring that on your cell phone (or printed) so that we can scan them when you arrive.
Please make sure you have a ticket for EACH person in your group. Your ticket can only be used once.
No ticket, no entry.

-=> IMPORTANT SAFETY ITEMS:
The trail is NOT considered accessibility-themed. This is a corn field, with uneven ground, corn stalks and cobs on the ground. While a wheelchair can fit through the width of the trail, wet weather and other conditions would make it difficult for persons needing any kind of mobility assistance to navigate. You may wish to come, but understand it can be difficult to to traverse!

By booking times, we are keeping the number of people in line at a minimum, reducing your wait time to enter

For your safety - there is no touching the monsters, pushing, crawling or running inside the maze

Loud sounds, strobe lights, fog and other special effects in use

Port-o-Potties are available on site

Yoga in the Garden
Yoga in the Garden is back! Get your Zen on in the beautiful Henry House Heritage Gardens this summer!

Starting Friday, June 7, at 9 am, we’re on the mat and ready to flow. Classes are free drop-in 1 hour-long sessions, with donations accepted. All proceeds go to the Oshawa Museum. This series continues every Friday morning, rain or shine, through September (temperatures permitting.)

All levels of yogis are welcome! Please bring any props that support your practice. Also, not all yogis enjoy pets and animals during their practice. If you bring a pet, they must always be on a short leash.

To see a complete list of instructors, visit the Oshawa Museum website or our Facebook page.

About the Oshawa Museum: The Oshawa Museum preserves and promotes awareness and appreciation of Oshawa’s history for a diverse audience's education, enrichment and enjoyment. As the only community museum in Oshawa, we take great pride in showcasing our city's history from the earliest First Nation occupation to the end of WWII. The OM is administered by the Oshawa Historical Society, a not-for-profit charitable institution, as an external agency of the City of Oshawa.
