We have a focus on family friendly events in the Paderborn area with pumpkin carving and corn mazes.

Would you rather enjoy the view of the amazing play of colors from the Ferris wheel or conquer the sky at night with the Thunderbirds?

You can only experience this and much more at FORT FEAR Horrorland, the Halloween Park event in Sauerland.
