DARK SHADOWS

The walls of this building have deep secrets that are about to be exposed. Step inside if you dare and explore the DARK SHADOWS that lurk deep within the walls of the abandoned building. It's not the dark you should be afraid of!

NIXON ASYLUM

The Asylum has long been closed, but emergency services received a phone call with no one on the other end. When deputy Alan arrives on the scene, the front door is open and the power is surging through the building. Something is not right. An evil lurks inside but they had no idea it was this sinister. There is no escape.

MAYHEM 3D

The clowns inside MAYHEM have rebelled against the carnival and you are stuck with a front row seat. There is no smiling, red nose, oversized shoe wearing juggling act in this MAYHEM. Prepare to be disoriented and second guessing your every turn.

INSANITY

Just when you thought you escaped the asylum, you are now faced with many difficult decisions. Left? Right? Wrong way?!? Will you be able to escape the maze of “INSANITY” or will you be stuck forever…joining those who have been trapped for an eternity!

Best haunt in ENC

Of all the haunts Ive been to in the eastern NC area this by far has been the best. 4 different sections of haunts, all with their own vibe and theme. VERY good attention to detail in every section of the haunt. The Dark Shadows walk thru does an amazing job of overwhelming your sense of direction and touch. All of the actors were great and definitely love what they do. You are not rushed at all and have the ability to walk thru at your own pace and really soak in the details. You really get your money's worth, hands down #1 and my new favorite haunt in NC!

Intense

Very good i usually don't get scared easy, but they had me cussing and yelling the hole time. Definitely a place to check out if u like getting scared, skittles, and the chainsaw clown.....amazing.
