Tips & Advice

  • Purchase tickets online in advance to save time and ensure entry, especially on busier nights closer to Halloween.
  • Arrive early, especially on peak nights, as the line can extend outside the building, though it is covered.
  • Consider purchasing skip-the-line or VIP passes if you wish to expedite your entry into the attraction.
  • While there's no age restriction, the PG-13 content means younger guests (16 and under) require adult accompaniment.
  • Leave any masks, props, or weapons at home or in your vehicle, as they are not permitted inside the attraction for safety reasons.
