Just how scary is Haunting Nights?

Happy Frights is an all-ages, family-friendly trick-or-treat adventure through 12 immersive worlds. Haunting Nights is an artful, elevated Halloween event with thrilling surprises throughout. We think Haunting Nights has just the right amount of thrill for anyone 13 and up. Haunting Nights isn’t gory and bloody. Rather, you’ll encounter moments throughout the journey that will likely cause your heart to race. It’s not a continual onslaught of fear, but there is no doubt you will encounter some moments that might result in an elevated excitement.

Both Happy Frights and Haunting Nights will be a fun night out. But if you’re coming with a group that doesn’t have kids under 13, we encourage you to join us during the second half of the night for Haunting Nights. You may let out a few squeals during your visit. But we think they’ll be followed by smiles and an appreciative laugh of relief. See you at Haunting Nights!
