Nightmares Fear Factory leans into a chilling backstory about a former coffin factory and a worker whose spirit is said to still roam the building. Whether fact or fiction, the tale sets the mood before visitors even step inside.
Once inside, guests navigate near-total darkness, guided only by dim red lights through a maze of tunnels and narrow passages. What lies ahead remains part of the mystery. Over the years, the attraction has built a reputation for startling even seasoned haunted house fans.
Visitors who reach their limit can use the safe word—“Nightmares”—to exit early. Over more than 30 years, the attraction has become famous for its candid fear photos, which guests can purchase along with optional video footage after their visit.
The experience is not suitable for those who are pregnant or have mobility limitations, heart conditions, recent injuries, or recent surgeries, as it involves crawling, ducking, and navigating near-total darkness.
Phones and cameras are not permitted inside the attraction. Visitors are also encouraged to stay close to their group throughout the maze. Tickets are non-refundable, even if you decide to leave before reaching the end.
