What is the parent rule for Knotts scary farm?

Guests ages 15 years old or younger who are found inside the park unaccompanied by a chaperone will be subject to ejection. This chaperone requirement applies to all Knott's Berry Farm, Knott's Scary Farm and Soak City Waterpark ticket and season passholders.



Knott’s Scary Farm implements a strict Chaperone Policy to ensure safety and a manageable environment during this high-demand event. Under this rule, all guests aged 15 years old or younger must be accompanied by a chaperone who is at least 21 years old to be admitted to or remain in the park after a specific time (usually 4:00 PM). The chaperone must present a valid government-issued photo ID with a date of birth at the entrance. Crucially, one chaperone can accompany no more than ten guests per day. The chaperone is required to remain inside the park with their group during the entire visit and must be reachable by phone. If a minor is found in the park without their chaperone, they are subject to ejection. This policy was sparked by past incidents of unruly behavior and is strictly enforced to maintain a family-friendly yet spooky atmosphere.
