The Haunted Garage of Emmaus Asylum Presents · First Annual
Grim Rides Car Show
Saturday, October 3, 2026 · 9:00 AM – 3:00 PM
Roll into the haunted grounds of Emmaus Asylum for a day of chrome, horsepower, and cold-blooded chills. From the '71 Nova to the '69 Chevelle SS to the menacing '61 Caddy, the meanest classics in the region are clawing their way out of the shadows — and you're invited to bring yours.
Just $5 to enter your car. Park it, show it off, and see if it's got what it takes to survive the judging. The top 5 take home Grim Prizes: overnight paranormal investigations at the asylum, cash prizes, exclusive Grim Rides merch, and the coolest trophies you've ever laid eyes on.
Food trucks all day, haunted tours for $10 if you dare step inside, and live music by Anthem Band — the best of the '60s, '70s, and '80s.
Every entry, every tour, every bite helps keep the Haunted Emmaus Asylum alive. So to speak.
