General Information Regarding Haunted Corn Maze Iowa

By Tonia Michael


Complicate patterns are cut into the corn fields during the construction of corn maze. Making an ordinary corn maze is not an easy task so a certain level of craziness id required to do a haunted corn maze Iowa. When viewed from above these structures present you with a spectacular aerial view which is as a results of their intricate forms. Activities on the ground show tourist struggling as they try to find a way out and as they do so most end up frightening themselves many times while inside the eerie labyrinth.

As Halloween approaches, these labyrinths are embellished with spooky themes by the farmers. Then the public is charged for admission to go in and navigate in the dark as the farmers stand back listening to screams of terror. In addition to being a family friendly social gathering, it is an ingenious way of earning extra income. The grain is harvested and then sold after the scary season is over.

Maize is yellow in color and a cereal grain that is produced on long, green strong stalks. It is borne on structures attached to the stalk known as ears. Maize is also scientifically referred to as Zea Mays and since prehistoric times it has been a cultivation crop. The kernels obtained from maize are served a number of ways for instance they can be packaged as cereal, cooked to form popcorn, flaked or fresh.

The Buddy Holly crash site is another interesting site for Halloween. The reason is because it is an actual crash site where three rock and roll musicians crashed and died. They were known as Buddy Holly, Ritchie Valens and Big Bopper where bad weather caused their Beechcraft Bonanza to crash as they headed to a performance in Minnesota from a gig they had at Surf Ballroom.

There are many fun and grisly places in the state of Iowa where people can celebrate Halloween. There is more state income generated from tourism than from annual corn crop and the Museum in Villisca and Axe Murder House are a perfect demonstration. The Villisca site is the place where Josiah Moore, his wife and 6 children were murdered at their home bank in 1912.

Good news to those of sensitive disposition and sci fi nerds, blood and gore is not all Halloween is all about. There is a plaque and a replica Star Trek space craft used to mark the supposed future birthplace of James T. Kirk of Starship Enterprise and Star Treks flagship commander. He may live in the imagination of many but fans converge on the town every March 22 in homage to this fictitious figure.

There is a tall metalwork referred to as Odyssey situated at the Gateway of Iowa which that has a tenuous link to Halloween. This is the massive artwork of a New York artist known as Albert Paley whose construction cost was $3.5 million. The affectionate nickname given to it is Freddy Krueger Hands which is its connection to Halloween. The Golden Spike Monuments shows the spiky things fondness and was put there as a tribute to the Transcontinental Railroad which was erected back in 1939.

This quiet little state that is far from the hustles and bustles of the Pacific and Atlantic coasts has a lot to offer than what meets the eye. The playful side of this state is demonstrated by the huge and quirky statues as well as haunted corn maze Iowa.
