Sep. 18th - Oct. 31st

This version of the Gothic classic tells the complete story of the romantic monster from the Carpathian Mountains near the Borgo Pass. The action is continuous and the excitement is nonstop after Van Helsing's entrance at the opening. The old professor has come to the aid of his friend and student, Dr. Seward, at Whitby Asylum in England. Mina Murray is suffering from a mysterious ailment which threatens to postpone her marriage to Jonathan Harker. Van Helsing has come fresh from scientific detective work in London investigating a frighteningly similar case. Very soon the beast joins them, and he is most serious about his plans for Mina. But the unholy vampire has met his final match in Van Helsing and friends.

Our hikes are usually at a moderate level/pace and last no more than 2 hours.  When you first arrive, you will be greeted by your hiking guide who will lead the way down the trail to each scene location.  Once you arrive at a scene location, you can sit back and relax and watch a scene from the production.  Once the scene is complete, we all gather our things and hike to the next location.
