The Haunted Train Ride Through Washington That Will Terrify You In The Best Way Possible

Chelatchie Prairie Railroad offers a spooky Headless Horseman Halloween Train ride at the end of October.

Every autumn, the Chelatchie Prairie Railroad offers a Harvest Run and a mid-October fall foliage ride. They’re both beautiful and fun, but if you love Halloween, wait until the end of the month. The Headless Horseman Halloween Train is always on the last weekend of October, and it’s as spooky as it sounds.

There is no age limit for passengers on this train.

If you’re looking for something with a lot of gore, this isn’t it. But sometimes gore isn’t necessary…

… because a headless horseman standing behind you is just as scary.

On a foggy day, Chelatchie even looks a little like Sleepy Hollow.

The diesel train powers through a 330-foot rock tunnel to the Helsson area with a stop at Moulton Station to visit Yacolt Falls.

Keep your eyes open on this train ride. The headless horseman likes to sneak up on people.

All aboard... if you dare.

This year's Headless Horseman Halloween Trains depart on October 28th and 29th at 9:30 AM, Noon & 2:30 PM.

You can reserve a seat on the Headless Horseman Halloween Train online. And if you’d rather have a tamer experience on the tracks, here are some other Washington train rides.
