Returning
every year like
a revenant fulfilling
a curse, the ghoulish
tradition of the
local 'Haunted House"
is revived each
October to the delight
of goths and gore-hounds
across America.
In Los Angeles,
the home of horror
film special effects,
the desire to create
the most elaborate,
frightening attractions
is intense.
Theme parks like
Knott's, Disneyland
and Universal Studios
each attempt to
lure Halloween revellers
with varying success
and degrees of shock
value.
But equally cherished
by loyal attendees
year after year
are the indie attractions,
springing up in
private homes, local
parks or abandoned
buildings.
In Los Angeles and
Ventura Counties,
the Southern California
MUST-SEE mazes of
mayhem and supernatural
terror are the Haunted
Attractions built
by the legendary
Spooky House crew.

The
relentless fear
finders of L.A.'s
Spooky House have
revealed a total
of five blood-drenched
and ghost filled
locations, each
with a horrid history.
THE
HAUNTED THEATRE
The abandoned movie
theatre where the
Devil's Tree murders
occured. Ghosts
from the past threaten
new carnage as this
theatre of terror
opens once again.
PHOBIA!
20 rooms filled
with every conceivable
fear, from clowns
to claustrophobia!
TURBIDITE
MANOR
Once the home of
a wealthy family,
this edifice now
imprisons their
souls in a perpetual
nightmare.
SEASIDE
HAUNT
The ghosts of 100
shipwreck victims
and the lighthouse
keeper responsible
for their deaths
return to torment
the living.
OLD
TOWN HAUNT
Ancient, cursed
and haunted catacombs
open beneath a 19th
century building.
