Lake Compounce divides Phantom Fall Fest into two experiences: family activities and rides during the day, followed at 6 p.m. by five haunted houses, two scare zones and night rides. One admission product covers both portions on an operating date. That structure lets families leave before the scares while night visitors can arrive knowing when the change begins.
The park’s event guide schedules Phantom Fall Fest on selected days through Nov. 1. It says the nighttime program begins at 6 p.m. and includes more than 20 rides and attractions along with the five haunts. Families who do not want the more intense portion should plan their departure before that transition rather than assume the daytime atmosphere continues unchanged.
General tickets start at $32.99
Lake Compounce’s ticket page displays date-specific admission from $32.99 and an online any-day ticket at $59.99. Both include Phantom Fall Fest, 20-plus rides, five haunts and two scare zones. The operator also includes a weather guarantee that provides a return ticket when weather interferes with a visit, subject to the posted terms.
Visitors should compare eligibility before purchasing the standard product. College students can verify with a college email for a $24.99 ticket valid on one operating day through Nov. 1. Groups of 10 or more are advertised from $27.99 per person, and children age 3 and younger are free under the group-offer terms. Promotional inventory and prices can change.
A season pass can change the calculation
The park’s 2027 pass page lists Silver and Gold products from $89.99 and includes access for the remainder of 2026, including Phantom Fall Fest. Gold adds general parking and other benefits, while Silver does not list complimentary parking. A one-time visitor should compare the admission-only price with the pass only after adding likely parking and repeat-visit value.
The daytime program includes trick-or-treating, seasonal food and family activities, according to the park’s seasonal calendar. Ride and event availability can change, so visitors should confirm the operating date and current hours before traveling.
TAQ’s Connecticut Theme Parks page provides additional state coverage, while current waits, hours and local weather remain available through the standard parks service.
