Tips & Advice

  • Arrive before 11:00 PM on Fridays and Saturdays to ensure you get in line for the haunts, as lines close at this time.
  • Plan to arrive early, especially on weekends, as they reserve the right to stop selling tickets due to crowd capacity.
  • Consider purchasing a VIP upgrade for individual haunts or the combo ticket to bypass the general admission lines.
  • If you have a medical condition affected by strobe lights, inform a staff member before entering; they can bypass you around affected areas.
  • Leave all bags, backpacks, and purses at home, as they are no longer allowed inside the venue and will not be stored.
