**** HAUNTED: AN EXCLUSIVE VIP EXPERIENCE ****
Oct 31: 7:00 - 11:30 PM
Nov 1: 7:00 - 11:30 PM
Nov 2: 7:00 - 10:00 PM
A terrifying blend of escape room and haunted house, reserved only for our VIP guests, conducted on the upper floors of The Hotel — a labyrinth of haunted suites, cursed corridors, and forgotten stairwells. You’ll be dropped off with only a glowstick to light your way.
Your mission: find the three missing skeleton keys hidden throughout the haunted floor. You’ll face live monsters, twisted puzzles, and time itself.
If you succeed, you escape. If you fail… you become part of the legend. You have just 30 minutes to survive.
Limited slots available. VIP access only.

**** GARRETT HOTEL GHOST TOURS ****
Nightly at 8:00 PM
AS FEATURED ON WRAL-TV's TAR HEEL TRAVELER
https://www.wral.com/video/tar-heel-traveler-garrett-hotel/21859144/
The heavy doors of the century-old hotel groan as they creak open, revealing a dimly lit room drenched in shadows. Dust clings to ornate light fixtures and faded wallpaper, whispering tales of a bygone era. As the group gathers, a chill brushes against your neck—not a draft, but something... different. The tour guide, a flashlight casting eerie beams that dance across the room, beckons you to step deeper into the hotel's labyrinthine corridors.
Equipped with EMF detectors, spirit boxes, and dousing rods, you clutch the ghost hunting gear tightly. Each beep and flicker sends jolts of adrenaline through the air. The guide recounts the spine-chilling tales of the hotel residents, who are still scurrying around in the dead of night, making sure the guests are being taken care of. As you approach the door, the devices hum faintly—a sign, perhaps, that you are not alone.
In the employee quarters, the atmosphere grows heavier, and the spirit box begins to crackle. Through the static, you hear it—a faint voice, a single word. The guide halts, eyes wide, as the group freezes in place. Is it your mind playing tricks, or have you truly made contact with the lingering spirits that call this place their home?
Every step, every sound, every shadow keeps you on edge. As the tour progresses, the line between the living and the spectral seems to blur, leaving you to wonder: when you leave this haunted hotel, will all the spirits remain behind?
We also conduct private ghost tours throughout the year. Our ghost tours consist of paranormal investigations of the historic Garrett Hotel, which is almost 100 years old, and is listed on the national historic register; and is also the building in which our haunted attraction is housed. The tours are conducted using professional ghost hunting equipment, which allows you to see fit yourself, the presence of spirit activity. The tours are private, with small groups, and guaranteed to be a unique experience! You will be required to sign a liability waiver before entering the hotel. For more info, contact us through messenger.
This attraction is not recommended for young children.
***PSYCHIC READINGS***
Having a psychic reading done can be fun and exciting and can reveal a lot about yourself. Your private reading will be performed by one of our natural born experienced psychic mediums here at the historic Garrett Hotel. All of our psychics have natural abilities to communicate with spirits and spiritual guides from the other side, many of which have specific messages and validating information to communicate to our clients. Find out what messages the spirits have for you!

Email Verified Absolutely loved it!!!
My husband and I went to the final night and time slot for their Halloween theme (Ringmaster). It was black out (so no lights, just a singular glow stick to light our way) and it was absolutely fantastic. All of the actors energy was phenomenal and the scares were great. My husband and I have both been scare actors before and love all things scary. We will definitely go back!!!

DO NOT GO IN BIG GROUPS
I went with a group of 6. I was in the front, and me and the person behind me LOVED it, 10/10, so scary and interactive. They were screaming my name, and it was frightening. However, the back 4 were a bit disappointed. They weren’t interacted with as much as us front 2.

Great Fun
The people in the gift shop who were checking Us in were absolutely wonderful to deal with! Really trying to give you a history and background. They were also fun to be with when we finished. The house itself was a mixture of horror and hilarity. It is easy to see how much work went into everything that was done, and how much fun the attractions were having with the people. I was having a lot of fun back with them! We will definitely be back for the next theme!
