 Trick-or-Treat Trail
  •  13 candy locations in Hershey’s Trick-or-Treat Trail, including Treatville trick-or-treat trail in Hersheypark and ZooAmerica, and Hershey Hollow in Hershey’s Chocolate World Attraction. Children ages 12 and younger are encouraged to come in costume for free treat bags and candy at each stop throughout this whimsical Halloween village. After you visit Hersheypark you might be inspired to have your own sweet Halloween part to include Halloween party games.

Zoo America during Hersheypark In The Dark

Creatures Of The Night

Included in the one-price admission to Hersheypark In The Dark Halloween attraction, guests are invited to bring a flashlight for the Creatures Of The Night experience program at ZooAmerica after 6 pm. Separate admission is also available at the Zoo’s off-street entrance. Halloween In Hershey is the only time of the year when guests can visit after dark and experience:

  • Viewing the nocturnal habits of the Zoo’s residents.
  • Watching as Naturalists offer pumpkin treats to select animals.

Advantages of Staying at a Hershey Entertainment Resort:

  • Early entrance to Hersheypark.
    • When you stay at The Hershey Lodge or The Hotel Hershey you get 1-hour early access to select rides and attractions at Hersheypark! Walkthrough the park getting photos that you want, get in ULTRA SHORT lines to ride your favorite rides, and enjoy the park before it is open to the general public! This is a very VIP perk!
  • Kids’ Check-In Desk
    • There is a desk specifically designed with the kids in mind! Kids can sign the kid guest book, receive a lanyard with their name on it, pick up coloring pages and crayons and take a guess at how many Hershey treats are in the jars on the counter. Prizes are given to the closest guesser! PLUS there are seasonal kids’ activities, including s’mores making on select evenings. 12 photos that will make you want to visit The Hotel Hershey and Spa from howipinchapenny.com
  • A Place To Rest
    • One of my BEST tips when visiting ANY theme park is to take a break mid-day. Go back to the hotel and take a rest, especially during the summer months, theme parks are HOT and the sun can zap the energy and the fun right out of your day. You can’t go back to a hotel if you aren’t staying at one! By staying at an official resort of Hersheypark you have free transportation to and from the park. Head back to your hotel mid-day for a rest, a dip in the pool or even a spa treatment at The Hotel Hershey.
  • Hershey Water Works
    • Hershey Water Works is a 30,000 square-foot indoor pool complex that includes Twizzler’s Twists water slides, a Reese’s Water Walk adventure, a zero-entry pool (GREAT for little kids and handicap accessibility!), sandcastle spray zone, lighthouse tipping buckets, basketball hoops in the pool and so much more! Seriously, I would stay at the Hershey Lodge JUST to play in Hershey Water Works.
  • Included Passes
    • Just by staying at The Hershey Lodge each member of your party is given a pass to the Hershey Gardens (open seasonally) and The Hershey Story’s Museum Experience. The Hershey Story museum experience takes visitors on a journey through his life, his chocolate company, his generous philanthropic legacy and the town of Hershey, PA. Engaging museum exhibits explore Mr. Hershey’s early failures, how he successfully revolutionized the process of making milk chocolate, and how the orphan boys of the Hershey Industrial School became heirs to his fortune.Our family attraction is also an interactive experience perfect for kids. The Apprentice Program and “I Spy” activity are special ways we present the Hershey Story to younger visitors, allowing them to guide themselves along a “scavenger hunt-style” exploration of the museum exhibits. We also develop special exhibits and hands-on museum displays with kids and families in mind…

      This was a great post! We just booked a hotel near by for the first weekend of the Hershey Park in the Dark. Do you know if they have coupons for this event? Is there anything you recommend that are a MUST to do or eat? Any tips will be so helpful. We are a family of 5 going for the first time, my daughters are 7,5 and 2! The oldest and the youngest will be celebrating their birthdays in the Park, is there anything special they do for that?
