Been there and loved it, plan to go back

Went back the summer after 45 years or more. I’d missed it and wanted to see it again. What a wonderful place. I look forward to going back sooner next time.
This would be a lot of fun

Love Stonefield haven't been there in years but want to go back to see the Historical site in Cassville
Cassville WI.
Wow
Anyone know how scary the full fright is? Are we talking guy with a chainsaw chasing you? Or is it pretty tame?
So much fun! Thank you Cassville residents for an amazing time for our youth.
Where can you see the pictures that were taken from the photographer that night?
Thank you for a great fun time.
Do you have to buy tickets online or can you buy them on-site
Do we have to purchase tickets ahead of time or can we buy them on site??
