For some people, fall is the best time of the year, but it can be hard to think of affordable fall activities besides going to a pumpkin patch. Here are a few fall activities that won’t break your wallet.

Ranch of Terror

Scary is what I always think of for this time of year, especially for October with Halloween around the corner. Haunted houses, haunted corn mazes, and haunted caves are fantastic when you want to get out of the house, and the Ranch of Terror has all of them. Admission is $13. The Ranch closes on Sunday, Oct. 27.
