FREE TICKET TIME!

OK, Fiends, it's time to win some free tickets to Fort Smith's best Halloween Event!

We are advertising on billboards throughout the Fort Smith area. Find one of them, take a photo of it and post it here. Everyone who posts a photo of a billboard will be entered into a random drawing to win two free General Admission tickets to River Valley Nightmare. THE BEST PART? We're drawing 3 separate submissions at random, so 3 of you will win a pair of tickets for free.

Here’s all you need to do:
1. Spot one of our billboards in the Fort Smith area and [safely] snap a photo of it.

2. Post that photo in the comments on THIS post before Noon Central Time, October 23, 2026. On October 23, we’ll randomly select three photo submissions as winner of 2 free General Admission tickets to River Valley Nightmare for our 2026 season. We’ll announce that winner here in the comments.

PLEASE do not take photos while you are driving. The only thing more scary than River Valley Nightmare would be you getting into a car accident.

Rules: comment on this post with a photo of one of our billboards in order to be entered in a random drawing to win two free general admission tickets to River Valley Nightmare haunted attraction for any remaining operating night during the 2026 season.

Did you know that we've partnered with the Institute for the Creative Arts High School in Fort Smith to help bring this year's attraction to you?

The is a tuition-free public charter high school and open to all students. It's the only immersive arts school in the state of Arkansas.

Some of the students of ICA participated in the construction of our haunted trail and are even volunteering as scare actors, led by an amazing and talented educator from the school.

We love being a part of this community and sharing that with other great organizations like The ICA. We're extremely grateful for our relationship.
