Yesterland Farm 15410 Interstate 20 Canton

Their website still says they have a corn maze, but boy have they not showed it off in awhile. The most recent photo I could find was all the way back in 2020. Looks like they primarily focus on their amusement park style rides and pumpkin patch. Have no idea if the corn maze is running for 2023, but their website says it is. Your admission price gets you access to different things at Yesterland depending on how much you want to pay. Tickets start at $19.95 per person and go all the way up to $54.95 per person. This one is the most expensive on the list BUT they do offer a lot more than the other places. Check out their website for full details.

LOOK: How Halloween has changed in the past 100 years

Stacker compiled a list of ways that Halloween has changed over the last 100 years, from how we celebrate it on the day to the costumes we wear trick-or-treating. We’ve included events, inventions, and trends that changed the ways that Halloween was celebrated over time. Many of these traditions were phased out over time. But just like fake blood in a carpet, every bit of Halloween’s history left an impression we can see traces of today.
