Almost universally no: flash ruins scenes, screens leak light, and dropped phones die in fog-machine darkness, so most haunts ban recording inside and sell a marked photo op instead. Shoot freely in the midway, queue, and facade areas, which are designed for it. Zip your phone into a secure pocket before entering, because retrieving one from a dark maze floor rarely works.
Posted warnings at nearly every haunt advise against entry for pregnant guests and anyone with heart conditions, and they're not just legal boilerplate: expect startle scares, strobe bursts, uneven floors in darkness, and crowds that occasionally bolt. Lights-on daytime tours, midway areas, and pumpkin-patch haunts offer the atmosphere without the physical jolts. When in doubt, ask your doctor, not the ticket booth.
Book a mid-evening timed slot, eat dinner first so the queue isn't hangry, and pick one flagship haunt plus the midway rather than a four-attraction death march. Shared adrenaline is the whole point: the queue is the conversation time, so skip fast passes on a quiet night. End somewhere warm and lit for the debrief, and check closing times before planning dessert.
