The Conover Killings brings a chilling twist to haunted trails in Wall Township

WALL TOWNSHIP, N.J. – A quiet Christmas tree farm becomes the scene of terror this October as The Conover Killings returns to Wall Township, offering one of New Jersey’s most immersive haunted experiences.

Located at 3101 Hurley Pond Road, the outdoor attraction transforms the Conover Christmas Tree Farm into a grisly landscape haunted by the story of Jonathan — a deranged killer who turned a childhood game of manhunt into a massacre.

Organizers describe it as “one of the state’s most unique haunted attractions,” blending narrative storytelling with high-intensity scares and interactive elements.


Key Points

  • The Conover Killings takes place at 3101 Hurley Pond Road in Wall Township.
  • Themed around a serial killer hiding on a Christmas tree farm after a murderous game of manhunt.
  • Features outdoor haunted trails, live actors, and physical interaction; wheelchair accessible and free parking.

A horror story brought to life

The attraction’s storyline centers on Jonathan, a killer who has just slain his friends during a nighttime game. Seeking refuge at the Conover Christmas Tree Farm, he finds a new set of unsuspecting victims — the visitors themselves. Guests enter the woods as part of the unfolding story, moving through detailed sets that combine rural eeriness with psychological terror.

Immersive experience with real interaction

Unlike traditional haunted houses, The Conover Killings allows limited physical interaction between actors and guests, heightening the intensity of the experience. Organizers promise an unpredictable blend of jump scares, suspense, and cinematic storytelling designed to unsettle even seasoned haunt-goers.

For thrill-seekers only

Rated “very scary” by attendees, the attraction is not recommended for the faint of heart but welcomes brave visitors looking for a fully immersive Halloween experience. The event is wheelchair accessible and offers free on-site parking.

Event details
