My wife is the fun things to do Halloween guru and found out about Fear Reach Scream Park on the…read moremorning news. She purchased our tickets directly from the site https://fearreach.fearticket.com/frontapp/book/ticket for $20 each and they also offer two add-on's, (1) the Double creature feature $15; and (2) the speed pass for $10 more. We purchased the $20 ticket, which grants you access to the park and 3 haunted houses. Things to know: - The park is only open on Friday and Saturday nights from 7-11pm. The park modifies its days/hours near the end of the month to be open on Thursday thru Saturday Nights (24th and 31st) until 12am. - The park is in a large open field out in the middle of Tavares. If you have trouble seeing at night you might want to bring your own flashlight because there is not a lot of lighting to and from your vehicle. - Although you are entering a somewhat enclosed park know that it is all outdoors. Dress appropriately for the humidity (it was muggy as hell), for walking in muddy grass and puddles, and prepare for mosquitos. - There are several osculating fans in the bar area which help but no air conditioning to be found other than in the restroom. - The only running water I could find was in the restroom and it was most likely well water from the property (strong sulfur odor). Bring your handy wipes! First off, I have to say that all the staff here are lovely! Every staff member we met were friendly, had a positive attitude, and truly cared about the job they were doing. I can only image that their managers treat their employees well and appreciate that they have such good people working for them. We had dinner before we arrived here, so we didn't purchase any of the food inside. It is nice to know that there are several food vendors available if you are hungry. The Gringa Mex food truck, and a BBQ vendor, along with one other vendor selling sweets and fried items. We did however purchase several drinks at the main bar and prices were competitive with one of the other bars on site. I was drinking Jai Lai IPA's and they were $6 each, not bad. There are several fun activities like the ring toss and ax throwing which cost more but all proceeds go to a good cause. Additionally, there was a Terot reader, a Henna tattoo artist, and several other merchants on site. All very cool; however, save them for after the Haunted houses to ensure you see them all. There was a very good band called The Dismembered playing during the evening. Our friend is a neighbor with one of the band members, which made the event that much more fun since we were able to meet and hang out with the band for a while. The haunted houses were pretty good. My favorite was Grimoire Manor, second best was Bloodline Barn, and third was the Chainsaw Chase. The first two are more of an actual haunted house, pretty much what we were looking for. The Chainsaw Chase is pretty much your group being quickly corralled (chased) through the haunted house by scary characters with chainsaws. It goes quick, so its over before you know it. I wish there was more characters inside and other creepy things to look at, then maybe have the chainsaw guy chase me out toward the end. Something to mention about the haunted houses is - two items jump out at you in the first two houses. One is this creepy dude that is hidden in a bed and the other is a tall dark Grim Reaper looking dude that's on a pedestal near a walkway. They are pneumatically controlled, which is awesome but they come very close and if I was the lead of our group, they would have hit me in the head because I am so tall. So just be prepared if your tall like me. All-and-all, we had a blast checking this place out. It was our first time here, and it was worth the $20 to me; I have to say, we will be back. If you are looking for another great place to enjoy the Halloween festivities, I highly recommend checking Fear Reach Scream Park out, and be sure to bring your friends, it is so much more fun with a group.

We were greeted immediately and were told that our daily admission gave us a yearly membership. Yay us! The place was packed with presidential memorabilia, wax figures, and the most fabulous miniature model of the White House. There was even a cute video of pets that have lived in the White House. A raccoon? Seriously? That is hilarious. For me, I wish it wasn't so hot inside. It may have been that it was a cold and rainy January day when we visited.

Stepping into the Mount Dora Firehouse & Jail Museum feels like stepping back in time--and what an incredible trip it is! This little museum is bursting with charm, local history, and personality. Tucked away in a quiet corner of town, it's one of those hidden gems that you almost don't want to tell anyone about--but it's just too good to keep a secret. From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with warmth and enthusiasm. The volunteer guide was an absolute treasure, full of fascinating stories and local lore. You could tell this place is run with heart and passion. They brought history to life--whether we were peeking into the old jail cells or checking out the vintage fire equipment (some of it dating back over 100 years!). Every nook is packed with Mount Dora's rich past--from the early days of the town's fire department to what it was like spending a night in the town jail (hint: not exactly luxury). It's immersive, quirky, and surprisingly educational in the best way. You don't need to be a history buff to enjoy it--this place makes learning fun and personal. Bonus points: it's super affordable, family-friendly, and a quick walk from all the cute downtown shops and cafés. If you're visiting Mount Dora, do not skip this museum. It's the kind of place that makes you fall in love with small towns all over again. 10/10 would "get arrested" again!

Guilford Davis Clifford, a native of Roam, New York, staked his claim in Florida for roughly $125 and made a fortune in the citrus business.

Inside, you will find beautiful Propecia Florida Cypress and Heart of Pine Floors; immaculately kept mahogany, cedar, and oak furniture; original handmade clothing, light fixtures, cast plumbing fixtures, dining ware; historical documents, photographs, and portraits. One of our favorite parts of the tour was the six fireplaces (made from "kits" at $12-each) featuring beautiful imported Italian tile, oak, mahogany, and tiger-wood mantles. If you want to take a step back in time to see how things used to be in the late 19th early 20th century, plan a day trip to Eustis and stop into the Eustis Historical Museum; it is a must-see!
