Kids tend to go through phases of obsession, whether it’s with princesses or scary stories or dinosaurs, though the latter tends to fan into a flame after subsequent viewings of “Jurassic Park.” For the dino-obsessed kid or perhaps the adult that’s never managed to shake Michael Crichton’s world of mischief and mayhem from their psyche, Backyard Terrors in Bluff City, Tennessee is bound to be a hit.
Backyard Terrors and Dinosaur Park is a Sullivan County gem, a backyard attraction that boasts more than 40 handcrafted sculptures of dinosaurs. Sound intense? It's pretty incredible.
Backyard Terrors offers free admission daily, and during the Halloween season offers a $15 Funhouse Haunt experience. Of course, although the admission is technically free, the park does operate on donations. We'd highly recommend making a donation of your own!
