Not meant to be a "scare". Instead, it "shows you the spookyness that Halloween has to offer." Good for all ages. Haunting the San Fernando Valley since 1985.
If you haven't caught their haunt, do it now... after 20 years, they're closing their haunting gates. 2006 will be it's last year.

This is a wonderful home based haunting based on mystery not shock. They haunted for 32 years. 2005 was their last year.
This was one of the best private haunts around. The Studio City house was transformed into a grave yard with Hollywood magic effects. Quite a number of eerie special effects different than the standard fright house. OK for all ages. Their website still exists with loads of pictures and lots of history.

A Studio City yard haunt that is mainly a graveyard scene, using props, many borrowed from the Museum of Death. Have a real antique Chinese coffin, tombstone, real flame torches and candelabras, fog machines & great lighting, voice processing and sound effects, and a human cast of characters all around the yard and seen thru the windows of the house, including: a gargoyle on the roof, a 6’7” tall “monster”, a ghoul, witches, zombies and various horned ghouls. It is both kinds of scary: eerie looking, and people-jumping-out-at-you shocking. Haunting since 1998.

While this haunted "house" has been going only since 2001, the builders have lots of experience in special effects and haunting. The haunt is built in a mix of buildings, some more than 100 years old... so the standard feel of you "knowing" it's just plywood is missing, because sometimes, you're in the real thing. Small groups go though unescorted, never knowing what to expect next because they change the show.
The rural atmosphere, combined with the frightening special effects
blend seamlessly to fully submerse our visitors into a world of terror. A
high horror, low gore attraction.
