What is Creepaway Camp?
The ultimate immersive summer camp experience designed exclusively for adult horror fans! Think of it as the summer camp you wanted as a kid, but with more slashers and fewer sing-alongs. We combine traditional camp activities like archery and hiking with horror-themed workshops, author panels and spine-chilling campfire stories told by some of your favorite horror creators.

When and Where?
Pack your bug-out bags for June 29-July 3, 2026. We'll be taking over the La Foret Conference & Retreat Center in Colorado Springs, CO. It's 350 acres of dense forest, scenic trails and perfectly eerie vibes.
