CORNFIELD MAZE: A FALL thing in Indianapolis
I haven't exactly tried this one, but it looks fun and a bit scary. The author is a right if you have watched "The Shining" this kind of maze can be scary and fun at the same time.
You will never know if the organizers added some twists on this maze or not. But getting lost in the cornfield maze is one of those fun adventures that you dream of as a kid and you still have that chance to cross that from your bucket list.
I just hope there's a yellow brick road to follow while you are making your way to the cornfield. If you are in town, might as well try the cornfield maze, well, you don't get to experience this quite often and yes it's a fall thing in Indianapolis.
Get lost in a cornfield maze near you

Some Indiana farmers have flirted with “agritourism” or “agritainment” by turning some of their cornfields into mazes.
It’s a twist on what farmers do in Europe with hedges. Here in the U.S. it’s a seasonal thing, a fall thing, a Halloween month thing. Sometimes “haunting” is part of it. You’ll recall if you ever saw “The Shining” that mazes can be scary places.
