Your 2021 List of Haunted Houses in Pittsburgh & Western PA…
Here is the complete list of haunted houses in Pittsburgh, PA and nearby areas. Updates for the 2021 Halloween season will begin shortly – be sure to check back often since things are ever changing as we awake from the COVID situation.
This list includes hayrides, trails and other Halloween attractions across western Pennsylvania. There are plenty in the Pittsburgh area to choose from, ranging from basic haunted houses with simple Halloween decorations to hayrides, to full-scale festivals with bonfires, bands and concessions. Some of these attractions are OK for kids, but be sure to visit the haunted house’s website to determine if they are kid friendly.
Each year, the haunted house attractions in the area seem to open earlier and earlier in the season. Many are opening in September and stretching through the first week of November. As the attractions become more sophisticated and complex, they are extending the season. September is a great time to head out since the weather is warmer, but if you prefer the chill of the October night air, there are even more options for you.
Now, onto this year’s list of attractions!
Haunted Mini Golf at the Hopewell Windmill
Now in its 11th year! Each fall the Hopewell Windmill miniature golf course transforms into a haunted Halloween attraction… Seasonal music, inflatables and various gory and not-so-gory decorations line the course. These include pumpkins, corn stalks, coffins, a “kitchen scene”, an “interesting shower scene” and a freezer for body parts. Watch out for creepy monsters that are sometimes lurking around, waiting to surprise you! The course is suitable for all ages, but it is probably best to bring the youngest children during daylight hours.
The course is the size of a football field, and takes 30-45 minutes to complete. Come at night and use glow-in-the dark golf balls! Be sure to visit the Haunted Windmill this season – one of the few area haunted attractions that is open daily through Halloween!
Beginning Saturday, September 12, 2020 through Saturday November 7, Daily!
Hours (weather permitting) & Cost: 11:00 am – 10:30 pm SAT / SUN; 3:00 pm – 10:00 pm MON-THU (until 10:30 on FRI). Cost is $10 for kids under twelve, $12 for adults.

Allen’s Haunted Hayride & Tavern of Terror
In it’s 42nd year in 2020, Allen’s Haunted Hayrides has become a Halloween tradition for decades and is one of the oldest haunted houses in Pittsburgh. On their website they claim to be the oldest hayride in the nation! In 2015 they added the Tavern of Terror, a 3500 square-foot haunted walk thru of classic horror! To mark the occasion, the website was rebuilt and upgraded. Both the hayride and Tavern of Terror will be back for 2019… Take a wagon ride down Route 666 to the Haunted Hayshed, and back again (if you are lucky). The barn itself was designated as being truly haunted in 2001 during a paranormal investigation. The hayride concept has been built upon to include unlimited carnival games and rides, along with bonfire pits that are available for rent. Beware – the hayride is intense, the monsters are in your face! For most people, the hayride lasts 30 minutes, for others, it lasts a lifetime!
2020 Dates: Fridays & Saturdays in October, plus THU 10/22 & 29, Dusk to 10:00 / 10:30 pm on Fri / Sat, or 9:00 pm on Thursdays.

Castle Blood will be open in 2020, with precautions in place. Tickets will have to be purchased in advance.
The MacCabre Family will return for their 29th year in 2020, 10th at their Monessen location! Note that the location changed a decade ago from Bealsville to Monessen. Castle Blood refreshes their adventure tour each year (like Night of the Vampire, The Dark is Calling and Beware the Moon). Each year there are new attractions to the tour, which is more of an interactive experience and not as much of a blood and gore traditional haunted house. It is “Halloween the way it ought to be”! In 2018, there was an all-new Experimentorium. Known for it’s grand special effects, Castle Blood is sure to please as Pittsburgh’s Most Unusual Haunted Attraction. The MacCabre Family actually lived on site at the old location, and are known to stay in character year round – they even hosted their own late night TV show, The Midnight Monster Hop. Read the entire legend of the Castle at their website.

Haunted Hills Estate Scream Park
On September 11th, a brand – new Haunted Scream Park opens its doors to Terrorize and Entertain Western Pennsylvania!

The “Haunted Theme Park” has enlisted the help of some of the best in the business to bring High-Quality Horrors to Western Pennsylvania, including Kyle Vest from the GSN show Skin Wars.
The event offers visitors three different Haunted Attractions, which visitors can choose at their own pace: The House, a terrifying haunted mansion filled with theme-park styled special effects and intense actors. Imperium, The ‘World’s First Escape House in which visitors must complete tasks and solve puzzles to escape a warehouse filled with horrific mutations and government experiments. And finally, The Deadwoods Challenge Trail, an innovative Haunted Trail Experience where visitors are given Flag Football belts, and must trek deep into the woods, completing a series of challenges while avoiding creatures that attempt to grab their flags.
The value doesn’t stop once visitors have exited the event, as the new Scream Park has partnered with Scene75 Entertainment Center in Pittsburgh to offer free games of Laser Tag to visitors.

The Park will close in mid-November following their last event, “Lights Out: A Full Contact Immersive Horror Experience.” This exclusive 18+ event will see the Park in an entirely different light. Visitors will be required to sign a waiver upon purchasing a ticket, and from the moment they step through the gates, Creatures are allowed to touch visitors.

In 2020, there will be limited tickets available and extra cleaning, in accordance with COVID-19 guidelines. As they say, “Staying 6 feet apart is better than lying 6 feet under!”
Back again are the Dead End Cornfield, HollowWood Haunted Hayride, Toxic Wasteland & Bruner Boarding House & Milford Asylum, where tortured spirits of former patients still seek revenge. Also returning is Haunted Hollow Escape, a 15 minute escape room to get out of Willie’s Shack before he returns! New Year, New Fear!
There will also be food & drink, live bands, DJs and bonfires…

2020 Dates: Fridays and Saturdays in October (including 9/25-26), 6:30pm till 10:30 pm. Opening Day: September 25th.

Haunted School of Terror
CLOSED… This Weirton haunted house was last open in 2017. They had hoped to return in 2019… Striplight Theatre was planning to buy the school property and recreate the haunted school, but there was no further info about that. So, it looks like this one gave up the ghost… Here is the description from 2016:
Dead tired of the same old routine? Same old haunted houses killing you? Head west across the state line to the Haunted School Of Terror every weekend in October. Come check out our eternal agenda… Take an elevator ride to the third floor and let class begin! You may be deathly surprised who you see from school: an old mate, perhaps a best friend? Boyfriend / Girlfriend? Teacher? Come and find out… Built in 1939, this school has taught a lot of souls: see if you can earn your diploma! Billed as one of the Ohio Valley’s Largest Indoor Climate Controlled Mazes, the Haunted School of Terror is located in Weirton, WV, only a 30 minute drive from Robinson Township, one hour from Pittsburgh. New for 2016 is The Barn, based on the legends of The Boogeyman, Hallowed Jack and The Candycorn Scarecrow.

Hellatorium at Switchback Raceway
CLOSED… This one never got off the ground.
A new haunted house had been planned for the Switchback Raceway in Butler back in 2014, but things did not come together as planned. It was planned to be the largest in Pennsylvania, situated inside a 45,000 sf building, the size of a football field. The website is down, and this one never seemed to get off of the ground.

Hobgoblin Hikes
Each year around Halloween, Westmoreland County rotates Hobgoblin Hikes throughout its county parks. Come for a FREE, guided tour through the haunted park woods. Recommended for those 8 and up. The hike is about 1/2 mile long, passing through mazes and cemeteries to various scare stations. Be ready for over 100 monsters of all types to greet you along the way! The maze is not haunted, so it is appropriate for kids of all ages as well as adults.

Hundred Acres Manor
CLOSED… They made the difficult decision not to open in 2020 due to the pandemic, at least for now. If things improve, they may open. Stay tuned… Either way, they will return in 2021. For reference, here is the description from last year:
Back for it’s 16th year in 2019, Hundred Acres Manor has been named “one of America’s scariest haunted attractions” by the Travel Channel, and is one of the more well-known haunted houses in Pittsburgh. It’s location is the same in South Park as the former Phantoms In the Park, at the old Sully’s Pool on Hundred Acres Drive. This attraction expanded in 2014 to six attractions which are mostly back again for 2019, featuring The Host, Vodou, Hallows Eve, Breach 2.0 and Curse. The Lift is also returning: a “legacy and staple” in Hundred Acres Manor history! Long-gone haunts from the past include Torture Tank, Deadlift, Damnation, Brine Slaughterhouse & FearScapes Factory. There is also a “not so scary” wagon ride for the younger kids. You can also interact and share photos on all the sites such as Facebook, YouTube and Twitter.
In 2015, they introduced the The Enigma Project escape rooms: Meltdown and Alchemy . This year there are two multi-room themes to choose from: Contagion & The Alchemist. These are horror escape room games for you and your friends, with the goal of figuring out clues to escape in under 45 minutes.
If this is not enough, this year they are featuring Buried Alive, a burial simulator, surely not for the faint of heart…. plus a beer lounge with four beers on tap.
Also in 2015 there was “Pittsburgh Tactical Zombie Laser Tag”, a great adaption of the game in order to control the zombie population out at South Park, as well as a 7,500 square-foot maze. These are also not mentioned on the website for 2018, so it is doubtful if these attractions are being offered.

2020 Dates: None at this time, subject to change.

Kennywood Phantom Fright Nights – CLOSED
CLOSED… Phantom Fright Nights has been cancelled for 2020, due to COVID-19. The following description is from 2019, for information only. Kennywood will be ready for 2021, assuming the pandemic is over by then!
Screams of terror and joy will float through the night at Kennywood once again this fall as Phantom Fright Nights, recognized by USA TODAY and Amusement Today as one of the best Halloween theme park events, returns beginning Friday, September 27.
Phantom Fright Nights will welcome a new haunt, new 4D Movie and the Best New Roller Coaster of 2019, The Steel Curtain, to its masterful mix of thrilling rides and chilling haunted attractions. New this fall, guests will visit Shady Grove Memorial Hospital, where a murderous doctor is stalking patients and staff alike. Can you help find the culprit – or more importantly, make it out alive?!
For those that do, eight other haunts and scare zones await, plus an escape room and IT: The 4D Experience®, a feature short based on the 2017 remake of the classic Stephen King novel in Kennywood’s 4D Theater. Experience IT like never before: IT: The 4D Experience is an 18-minuteshow filled with extra surprises, like eye-popping cinematography and spine-chilling special effects, to heighten the storyline. IT: The 4D Experience is included with admission to Phantom Fright Nights.
“As one of Pittsburgh’s most popular and longest-running Halloween attractions, we’re always looking to reinvent ourselves,” says Marie Ruby, Director of Ride and Phantom Fright Nights Operations. “With a new haunt, new movie and a new record-setting roller coaster, this year’s Fright Nights will deliver many new thrills…or else!”
Phantom Fright Nights tickets are now on sale at Kennywood.com. Guests can save up to $5 off standard gate price by buying tickets at local Giant Eagle stores, or qualify for 50 percent off select dates by purchasing a 2020 Season Pass. College students can also get half-off tickets on select nights by presenting their school ID.

Lonesome Valley Farms: Valley of Terror
In 2020, this event will be DRIVE-THRU only, through the scenes and trails. Only the corn maze on sunday nights will be a walk-thru. All CDC guidelines are to be followed.
This Halloween event, located next to the Westmoreland County Fairgrounds, typically would feature a haunted hayride and maze / trail, as well as the Slotter Farmhouse and Barn. It is already in its 33rd year! Concessions will be available for drive-thru only, but it is unclear if the harvest gift shop will be open. This year’s Get Lost Corn Maze is called the Dove Maze as a symbol of hope in 2020.
In prior year, shared fire pits would be open to the public at no extra charge. Also, a Saturday / Sunday Matinee Pumpkin Patch Playland would be held for the younger kids, 2:00 to 6:00 pm, on the three weekends prior to Halloween. In the past they have had special events and attractions such as a kids costume contest, Zombie Night and Guys and Ghouls Night. They have also featured the Pumpkin Catapult off and on through the years. Perhaps they will return in 2021.
Also, there are reports that the farm is TRULY haunted, and that some of the “effects” that visitors notice are not part of the attraction.

Fridays & Saturdays in October, beginning 9/25/20 through Halloween, 7:30-10:00 pm. Corn maze is open on Sundays from 6:00 – 9:00 pm (cash only – $10)

Monongahela Candlelight Ghost Walk Tours
There have been no updates as to if this is taking place in 2020. With everything going on, probably not. Below is the description from 2019:
The ghost walk is back for its 22nd season in 2019, always with new wrinkles, haunted stories of the Mon Valley and additional events! Costumed guides and storytellers lead participants on a candlelight walk through the streets of Monongahela, discussing supposedly true paranormal accounts of the local area. Four sites were visited in years past. You can also sign up for a VIP tour on Saturdays, which includes a full tour of one of the haunted houses, led by the owner. Last year it took place at the old Blythe house at the famed 808 Main Street address; this year will be at different historic home, not yet announced. The walk concludes with refreshments and a chance to discuss the tour. In years past they have hosted a Masquerade Ball, a History and Myths program, and a Spell-a-Bration, a must for magic fans! Call to inquire about these events. All proceeds benefit the Historical Society’s Keep the Museum Open campaign. Tours are not recommended for children under 12.

October 11-12, 18, 2019. Meet at Longwell House across from Chess Park, 7:30pm. Reservations required, call 724-258-6432.

Northern Nightmares
CLOSED… This was last known to be open in 2018.
Northern Nightmares was a unique group of Halloween events in and around Zelienople and Harmony, PA. It was based out of The Strand Theater in the heart of Zelienople, and has included chiller and horror movies at the theater. The main event had been the 45-minute Nightmare Tour of the local area, with guides providing “real” ghost stories and accounts of the local area as you tour the towns by bus. There were also spooky and Halloween-themed shows and movies at the fabulous Strand Theater all October long.
The tour was appropriate for the entire family. This event had been around for several years, but took a break for a while. It returned annually in 2015 – 2018.

A tradition for younger children, the Zoo Boo is back this year, again for two weekends during daylight hours (9:00 am – 3:00 pm). However, with COVID going on, this time it will be an exclusive drive-thru event! The cost will be $75 per vehicle, with enough treats for 4 persons per vehicle.
For those still wanting to enter the zoo, there will be “Pumpkin Palooza” on Sunday, October 4th. Bring a pumpkin to decorate, get some pumpkin goodies and meet some “educational animal ambassadors”.
In prior years, you could dress up your kids in their costumes, go trick-or-treating at the roughly 15 to 20 treat stops and enjoy the various attractions the Zoo has to offer. There was a hay maze, 2 haunt spots for the little ones (not very scary), a Monster Mash Dance Party and costume parades to the Pumpkin Patch Pavilion stage, where there were costume contests. Perhaps these activities will return in 2021.
2020 Dates: Drive Thru on October 17-18, 24-25. 9:00 am – 3:00 pm. Pumpkin Palooza on Sunday, 10/4.
