You’re given a dim (like SUPER dim) flashlight, wished luck, and sent off into a narrow, winding maze of black tarps. You squint to see as your partner shakily pans the light across the wall, looking for the next turn, when out pops…. A creepy lady eating kitty poop out of the litter box?! “Yum,…
Give Up the Ghost is one of the more unique Halloween experiences we’ve visited this season. It reverses the typical haunt, instead calling on us, the guests, to play our dead selves. It is not gory, and there are no jump-scares. In Give Up The Ghost, it’s the choices you make that will haunt you….
The Los Angeles Haunted Hayride received a huge overhaul for 2019 thanks to Thirteenth Floor Entertainment Group and Plague Productions. We attended their announcement panel at Midsummer Scream back in August, and since then were eagerly awaiting opening night. One of the biggest improvements we saw this year was the overall transformation of the Old…
Each Halloween season, Force of Nature Productions presents their signature ‘theatrical haunt’ series Fallen Saints. We got to preview the first scene of this year’s show, SALEM, at Midsummer Scream back in August, so were eagerly awaiting the rest of the story. SALEM (based on the Salem Witch Trials, as you might have guessed) poses…
We’ve been attending Queen Mary’s Dark Harbor for years and look forward to it every haunt season. The location on the water always adds an extra eerie vibe, and a chill to the air (which we appreciate since it still feels like summer here!). And of course, the fact that the Queen Mary ranks among…
This was our first year attending Six Flags Magic Mountain’s Fright Fest so we were thrilled to be invited to the 2019 opening night event. We had met some of their monsters at a previous year’s Midsummer Scream convention, but aside from that, weren’t totally sure what to expect. We parked and were immediately greeted…
We officially kicked off Haunt Season earlier this month with a trip to Universal Studios Hollywood’s Halloween Horror Nights for its media and fan preview event. Halloween Horror Nights, or HHN as a lot of us call it, is a SoCal theme park haunt staple, and we’re excited every year to see what film /…
Last weekend THL attended the world premiere of Thomas J. Misuraca’s Masters of the Dark Realm presented by Force of Nature Productions. When a group of long-time friends end their fantasy role playing game, Masters of the Dark Realm, they seek out new quests in the real world. Will a tragedy bring them together to…
Audition for Houdini’s Academy they said… it will be fun they said… Lucky for us, it was a ton of fun! Located at 60Out’s newest spot in Silver Lake, CA, HOUDINI opened only a week ago and is already garnering a huge buzz in the local escape room community. We were able to visit it…
Yesterday evening, The Haunt List took a quick trip to Griffith Park to visit Boney Island. This was their first year setting up in Griffith Park at the Los Angeles Live Steamers, and they really took advantage of the space. The attention to detail there throughout the event was inspiring. Some other SoCal haunts…
