THE STORY
Reported Haunting
Knott's Berry Farm is associated with numerous ghost stories, particularly around its historic Ghost Town buildings and attractions. Employees and visitors have reported apparitions, unexplained footsteps, voices, and objects moving on their own, with several different spirits said to inhabit areas throughout the park.
At Knott’s Berry Farm, many places are rumored to be haunted. At Camp Snoopy, Peanuts Playhouse is rumored to be haunted. Employees have reported chills, voices, lights that go on and off when the power is off, and the felling of someone following them. Also, the Kingdom of the Dinosaurs ride is believed to be haunted by a maintenance worker who died here in a fire years ago, and the apparition of a young boy has been seen there as well. There was once a parachute ride that is no longer in operation and is said to be haunted by a man who jumped to his death from it in the 1980s. And on Virginia’s Gift Shop’s second floor, the employee breakroom, witnesses have heard unexplained noises and felt cold breezes, and doors are said to open on their own.
