Drawing inspiration from literature’s countless dark forests, Woodland Spirits evokes mystery and adventure during the Halloween season. 

As you explore WildWoods and Fernbank Forest, be prepared to encounter ghostly visitors in the shadows, up in the trees, deep in the vistas, and waiting in plain sight. Although mostly undisturbed throughout history, these woods feature clues and remnants from those who’ve come before us. Perhaps their spirits never left.  

Woodland Spirits features a variety of ghostly figures imagined by Fernbank and transformed by Laura Lewis, an Atlanta artist who specializes in sculpture, painting and outdoor installations. 

NEW: Check out new Halloween encounters in Woodland Spirits including Monster Garden, Harvest Stories and Haunted Outpost.
