Heber B Creeper Leaves The Haunted Canyon To Visit

Whether your family enjoys spooky stories or a pleasant autumn excursion, Heber Valley Railroad has something for everyone this October.

Every year in October the Provo Canyon becomes haunted with ghosts and legends of its past.

This is a fun and exciting FAMILY Halloween activity because you are all together safely on aboard Utah's only historic railroad. The stories and legends are spooky and fun but not too scary for kids. You don't have to worry about losing anyone in a maze or haunted house.
