Here's a description: "Gather your courage and your teammates to complete as many phobia-inspired challenges as you dare. Overcoming each fear may help you unravel this unsolved mystery."

Groups and individuals are encouraged, though kids will be paired together if they go alone. Costumes aren't allowed at this event.

It's free, but registration is required by Oct. 27. Call the park at 919-996-6463 for details.
