Looking for something a little scarier?

Terror Mills Haunted House is located right here in Jackson, and it's a good one! This huge haunted house returns every year, and we're making it even easier to visit during Hawkins Weekend with free shuttles running from the downtown square to Terror Mills.

Admission is $25 per person, and you can purchase your tickets at the door. Once you step inside, you're in for a frightfully good time!

Then, when you're ready for a real scare, hop aboard the free shuttle and head over to Terror Mills!

80s HALLOWEEN BINGO NIGHT

The Greater Butts County Lions Club is hosting a totally strange 80s Halloween Bingo Night at The Rivers Ranch! Come out for an evening of bingo, costumes, 80s music, prizes and Halloween fun while supporting a great local cause.

The Rivers Ranch is a beautiful event venue less than 10 minutes from downtown Jackson, Georgia — the real-life filming location used to portray Hawkins in the hit Netflix series Stranger Things. Guests can park directly at the property, and there will also be a FREE shuttle running between downtown Jackson and the event, making it a great addition to your weekend exploring the filming locations and everything happening downtown.

Doors open at 7:00 PM, and bingo begins at 7:30 PM.

Your ticket includes admission, complimentary snacks and your first bingo pack. There will be 10 fun bingo games, great prizes, a 50/50 raffle, 80s music, costume prizes and a full bar.

Costumes are definitely encouraged! Rivers Ranch
