What can you expect this year? They have three spooky and immersive experiences that aren’t for the faint of heart.
Each haunt takes around 8 minutes. If you’ve been to DARK before, there’s still something new for you this year.
There is one brand new haunt and there’s a continuation of the story on two previous haunts.
Aside from these experiences, there are also roving entertainment and food and beverage services for you to enjoy. Enjoy local food truck favorites and Halloween-themed cocktails while listening to a live DJ.
Tickets cost $45 (plus fees & tax) for access to the three haunts. You can book your tickets here.
You can also buy food and drinks ahead of time here.
