VERY SCARY

The Haunting of Keystone

Visitors navigate three distinct haunted attractions: Rushmore Cave at Rush Mountain, Big Thunder Gold Mine, and the Keystone Victorian Schoolhouse Museum. The tour winds through natural cave passages, an old mill with steep stairs, low rocky mine tunnels, a dark forest, and a three-story schoolhouse. Along the way, guests encounter gruesome scenes and actors who may reach out and touch them.
