Tips & Advice

  • Arrive early, especially on peak nights, to minimize wait times for the haunted attractions.
  • Wear comfortable shoes as you'll be doing a lot of walking and standing in queues.
  • Check their social media or website for any special event nights or promotions.
  • Bring a friend to share the scares – it's often more fun (and less terrifying) with company.
  • Be prepared for darkness and sudden scares; keep your hands to yourself to avoid startling the actors.
