******* BLIND DATE *******

February 13-15

Blind Date... a lights-out haunted attraction where romance takes a deadly turn. You enter the dark armed only with a flashlight, searching for the person you were promised to meet. But instead of roses and candlelight, you stumble into a nightmare—your blind date isn’t human at all, but part of a ravenous horde of zombies. Every shadow hides another grotesque suitor, every corridor echoes with the moans of the undead, and the closer you get to finding "the one," the more horrifying the encounter becomes. In this twisted Valentine’s experience, love is blind, terror is everywhere, and your date is dying to meet you.


--------------------------------------


******* LUCK RUNS OUT *******

March 13-15

Luck Runs Out... where every Irish superstition has been shattered—and the consequences are terrifying. As you wander through mist-choked moors and crumbling stone circles, you'll face the wrath of vengeful fairies, banshees shrieking in the shadows, and leprechauns twisted by rage. Broken charms litter the path, glowing green with cursed energy, while overturned fairy rings pulse with ancient magic. Each room plunges you deeper into folklore gone feral, where the spirits of old Ireland rise to reclaim their honor. You didn’t just tempt fate—you invited it in. Now they’re coming for you.
******* GARRETT HOTEL GHOST TOURS *******
Nightly at 8:00 PM
(Ghost tours are not conducted on nights that the haunted attraction is open)

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 conduct private ghost tours throughout the year. Our ghost tours consist of paranormal investigations of the historic Garrett Hotel, which is over 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!

******* PSYCHIC READINGS *******
Nightly from 7 - 10pm
(Psychic readings are not conducted on nights that the haunted attraction is open)

A private psychic reading at the historic Garrett Hotel is more than just fun — it’s a journey into the unknown. Conducted by one of our gifted, natural-born psychic mediums, each session offers a rare opportunity to connect with spirit guides and energies from the other side. These aren’t vague impressions. Our psychics specialize in delivering specific, validating messages — insights that often reveal hidden truths, personal revelations, and connections to loved ones long passed. Whether you’re seeking clarity, comfort, or curiosity, your reading will be tailored to you and your spiritual path.

The Garrett Hotel has seen tragedy, triumph, and things that defy explanation. When you sit down for your reading, you’re not just exploring your own path… you’re stepping into a place where the veil is thin, and the past is never silent. Now it’s your turn to experience the energy that lingers within. What will they say to you? Only one way to find out!

Review This Haunt
  • Email Verified Hotel haunt

    I surprised my wife with a trip to “The Hotel” in Ahoskie. She loves scary stuff and scary clowns. We went for the painted face asylum (Jan. 2026) and had an awesome time. It scared the crap out of her! The staff was great and the characters were awesome. We will be back.

  • Soooo fun!!

    We had the best time with this crew! My husband and I did a psychic reading with Tommy as a couple and individually and 100% was the best reading we have ever had. He nailed it. We both left with tears both of joy and bc he was so accurate!! Then we came back and did the haunted hotel for painted smiles asylum and were so scared and had alot of laughs. Highly recommend this haunt and all they have to offer! We will be back next weekend for the tour of the hotel and the following month's for their new haunted hotel themes! Only issue is we wish it was longer! BUY THE TICKET!!! DONT MISS IT!!

  • Email Verified Amazing time at The Hotel

    We had an amazing time at the Hotel Haunt in Ahoskie for their event “A Nightmare on Elf Street.” We purchased the VIP package and received a true VIP experience. I won’t spoil the surprises, but if you’re looking for something different, this is it. There are three events planned, and the next one starts soon. I highly recommend it to anyone wanting something beyond the usual. The group behind this is fantastic. I wouldn’t bring young kids who scare easily, but adults will love it—and it’s reasonably priced. The next event is in January 2026. You won’t be disappointed. Thank you to the cast and crew of the Hotel Haunt—awesome awesome awesome.

  • Email Verified One of the best!

    This is by far one of the best haunts I’ve ever been to, I’ve been searching for a haunt nearby where the actors can touch you for ages, the regular stuff just wasn’t doing it anymore, as a haunt actor myself it takes a lot to get a rise out of me, but this haunt did just that in more, I got the VIP package and it was well worth the money. Before I went in they asked me how much I was ok with and I said do your worst, I was touched, sprayed with silly string, restrained, fed cookies, yes you read that right, and whipped (not painfully so). I also love the fact they do themed haunts all year round, I don’t get to go to many since most run during my own season, I drove 2 hrs to check this out and I can confidently say I will be back for every haunt they put on (plus to do a ghost tour or two)

  • Email Verified VIP Experience was worth it!

    We visited last night for the VIP event. This wasn’t just a haunted house, but an escape room style experience—it was a full-on immersive thriller. Finding keys in the dark... the atmosphere was hauntingly perfect, and the actors? Absolutely phenomenal. They didn’t just perform—they lived their roles, keeping us on edge and fully engaged the entire time. Every twist felt personal, every scare earned. If you want a night of suspense, storytelling, and unforgettable moments, The Hotel VIP delivers!

  • 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.
