A Halloween-themed carriage and hayride attraction is coming to Stateline, with rides departing from Bally’s Lake Tahoe. The experience is scheduled for Friday and Saturday evenings between October 2 and November 1, 2026. Operating hours are 4:00 to 9:00 pm, giving visitors an option during the fall evening hours.

Guests can choose between haunted carriages and haunted hayrides. The carriage portion uses an all-electric vehicle and follows a wooded loop through the area. The setting includes tall pines, seasonal lighting and a trail away from the busy Highway 50 corridor. Riders can sit in cushioned seats and use blankets during the outing. Costumes are part of the atmosphere, while the mountain setting adds a chilly autumn backdrop.

The event begins at Bally’s Lake Tahoe, identified in the listing as Caesars Republic Lake Tahoe Hotel and Casino. For visitors staying in or near Stateline, the attraction adds a scheduled nighttime activity to the fall calendar without requiring travel away from the resort area.
