The Farmer City Chamber of Commerce is inviting central Illinois to its annual Haunted Forest that opens this weekend.

Angela Testory says their hayrack ride begins at the Salt Creek Area 21 campsites and goes back to South Park. Saturdays of the Haunted Forest, there is a matinee option from 3 pm to 6 pm.

According to Testory, they are always in need of volunteers for their two weekends. She explains they have a good base of people that step up but they always could use more. Additionally, around eight people on their committee put together all their scenes and organize everything.

The Farmer City Haunted Forest Saturday matinee will have plenty of options for kids as well. Testory indicates there will be free face painting, a Halloween photo opportunity, and a costume contest.
