Temporarily Closed - In the fall of 1941, the Happy Time Circus was ready for their biggest performance to date just outside of Columbia. However, due to horribly unsafe conditions, a tragic accident involving several large circus animals led to panic and chaos. The resulting stampede caused the deaths of dozens of customers and the clowns who were performing nearby. Fearing legal action, the circus promoter hastily hid the bodies deep in the woods behind a nearby asylum. With the chill of Fall in the air, the clowns have risen from their shallow graves and roam the dark woods, seeking revenge for their untimely demise.

Temporarily Closed - In the winter of 1950, an odd and reclusive man named Ezekiel Helmsley established a Mortuary on the grounds of the abandoned Hawthorn State Asylum. People began to talk about the vileness that seemed to always radiate from the presence of the Mortician. Rumors quickly began of improper burials, corpse desecration and forbidden experimentation. After decades of surrounding himself with death, Ezekiel became obsessed with preventing his own. Through some corrupt combination of science and dark arts, the creepy Mortician managed to prolong his life. Legend says that Ezekiel had a family he kept hidden due to their twisted appearance and odd eating habits. A family he kept alive by switching out body parts piece by piece. Some say Ezekiel is still working to this day, always looking for fresh specimens.

Temporarily Closed - Built in 1856, Hawthorn State Asylum was designed to house the most disturbed and dangerous patients from around the midwest. It was the last stop for persons too violent for other facilities. Conditions inside the Asylum became horrible due to overcrowding and loss of funding. The facility's extreme use of lobotomies, electric shock treatment and torture contributed to its eventual closure. However, it was a horrific event that finally closed its doors forever. Under a full moon on August 23rd, 1948, a riot erupted throughout the complex. A small group of especially devious patients had finally had enough of the treatment and managed to set several fires and free the other patients during the mayhem. After police were able to regain control and the smoke cleared, the full horror of the massacre was revealed. 53 dead: 31 patients and 22 staff. The doors were locked, windows boarded over, and Hawthorn State was left to rot in the hopes that all could be forgotten. Rumors quickly began of ghosts, strange happenings and the screams of all those who burned to death inside. In the late 1970's, a new urban legend swirled around the now dilapidated and crumbling building. Stories of a strange man living inside. Stories of a man with a hook for a hand. Stories of a man who kidnapped, tortured and killed. Stories of a disfigured man who carried away his victims in a large, bloody burlap bag. And after the police finally recovered several sacks full of the body parts of missing persons, he became forever known as The Bagman. He was never found, but even to this day, it is said he still roams the halls of the old Asylum, waiting for his next victims.

Temporarily Closed - Once upon a time, in a forgotten corner of a once-thriving circus town, there stood a derelict circus tent known as “Carnival Delirium.” This tent was home to a troupe of performers unlike any other—a group of eccentric and misfit clowns, known collectively as “The Freak Show.” These clowns were outcasts from other circuses due to their bizarre appearances and unsettling acts, and they found solace and companionship in each other’s company. The leader of the Freak Show was a clown named Zephyr, known for his unsettling grin that never seemed to leave his face. Zephyr was rumored to have been cursed by an ancient clown spirit, a curse that granted him extraordinary talents but also twisted his appearance into something unsettling and otherworldly. He embraced his cursed nature and rallied the misfit clowns to form their own circus, where they could be themselves without fear of rejection. Carnival Delirium became a haven for these unconventional performers. The clowns had the ability to manipulate reality and create mesmerizing illusions, and they crafted a fantastical realm within the tent. The once-dull exterior transformed into a vibrant, kaleidoscopic facade that welcomed visitors with promises of wonder and amazement. But as with any good tale, darkness lurked beneath the surface. Zephyr’s desire for power grew stronger, and he became consumed by his twisted ambition. He turned to forbidden magic to enhance the illusions, delving into the dark arts to create an otherworldly 3D maze within the tent—The Freak Show. As the years went by, Carnival Delirium became more infamous for its eerie and unsettling reputation. Rumors spread of visitors entering the tent and never returning, trapped forever within the maze of Zephyr’s making. Whispers spoke of visitors losing their minds as they wandered through twisted corridors and surreal landscapes, tormented by the nightmarish illusions. One fateful Halloween, the town rallied against the growing darkness that emanated from Carnival Delirium. A group of brave individuals ventured into the tent to confront Zephyr and put an end to the twisted circus’s reign of terror. Their confrontation with the cursed clown leader unleashed a cataclysmic event, sealing the tent and its malevolent inhabitants within a realm of perpetual night and darkness. Years later, the legend of Carnival Delirium and the Freak Show clowns still lingers, drawing curious thrill-seekers and adventurers to the abandoned circus grounds. The tent has reappeared, but only on the eve of Halloween, when the boundary between the living and the supernatural is at its thinnest. Renamed “Freak Show,” the haunted attraction transports visitors into a twisted 3D maze, where they must navigate through disorienting illusions, nightmarish landscapes, and encounters with the restless spirits of the Freak Show performers. “Freak Show: A Twisted Carnival of Nightmares” promises an unparalleled immersive experience that challenges the senses and sanity of those who dare to enter. The clowns’ cursed magic has manifested into an intricate labyrinth of horrors, where reality bends and distorts at every turn. As visitors venture deeper into the maze, they’ll come face-to-face with their deepest fears and must rely on their wits to escape the grasp of the malevolent spirits that still haunt the twisted circus grounds. Will you brave the darkness of the “Freak Show” and navigate the maze of nightmares, or will you become lost within the surreal horrors conjured by Zephyr and his misfit clowns?

Temporarily Closed - In the quiet and remote town of Hollowbrook, there’s a tale that’s been whispered for generations—a tale that sends shivers down the spines of those who dare to listen. Legend has it that within the heart of Hollowbrook lies a forgotten underground labyrinth known as “The Abyss.” This sprawling network of tunnels and chambers was originally constructed in the 19th century, intended to serve as a secret storage facility for valuable goods, but it was abandoned shortly after its completion due to mysterious accidents and unexplainable phenomena. Over the years, The Abyss fell into obscurity, becoming a mere mention in old town records. That was until the Hollowbrook Historical Society stumbled upon records describing the construction and subsequent abandonment of the underground complex. Intrigued by the history and the eerie reputation surrounding The Abyss, the society embarked on a mission to restore the tunnels and open them to the public as a Halloween haunted attraction, aptly named “Total Darkness.” As preparations for the attraction began, the Historical Society uncovered chilling accounts from workers who had originally constructed The Abyss. These accounts spoke of unsettling occurrences during the construction, including strange whispers, unexplained gusts of wind, and sensations of being watched by unseen entities. The workers’ descriptions grew increasingly disturbing as they delved deeper into the tunnels, claiming that they could hear distant cries, laughter, and even the faint echoes of footsteps in the darkness. During one particularly fateful night, a massive blackout plunged Hollowbrook into complete darkness. In the midst of the chaos, those who dared to venture into The Abyss reported experiencing intense sensory distortions and hallucinations, as if the darkness itself had taken on a sinister life of its own. Some claimed to have glimpsed fleeting shadows, while others felt phantom hands brushing against their skin. The Historical Society was quick to seize the opportunity to incorporate this eerie occurrence into their Halloween haunted attraction. With the help of modern technology and elaborate set design, they recreated the unsettling atmosphere of The Abyss, complete with narrow passages, hidden chambers, and an intricate system of pitch-black tunnels that visitors would have to navigate without any source of light. The “Total Darkness” attraction promises a spine-chilling experience like no other. As visitors step into the labyrinth, they’re engulfed by an impenetrable darkness, their senses deceived by the absence of light. Whispers seem to echo from the shadows, and the air grows heavy with a palpable sense of foreboding. Those who dare to venture forth will have to rely on their instincts, courage, and perhaps even each other to navigate the abyssal depths and emerge on the other side. However, not all who enter are guaranteed to leave unscathed. As legend has it, the spirits of those who met their unfortunate end within The Abyss still linger, forever trapped within the darkened corridors. They’re said to reach out to the living, seeking to share their torment and fear. The “Total Darkness” attraction plunges visitors into this chilling world of haunted history, where they must confront their deepest fears and navigate through the shadows while desperately clinging to their sanity. So, as Halloween approaches and the moon rises over Hollowbrook, the gates to The Abyss open, inviting those brave enough to enter into a realm where darkness reigns supreme. Will you have the courage to face the unknown, or will you become lost in the depths of the haunting “Total Darkness”?

Temporarily Closed - Centuries ago, in a secluded village nestled deep within the eerie woods, there lived a powerful and malevolent witch coven known as the Blackthorn Coven. Led by the sinister witch, Agatha Blackthorn, the coven was notorious for practicing dark magic and conjuring malevolent spirits to serve their sinister ambitions. Agatha Blackthorn was believed to have struck a pact with a malevolent entity known as the Shadowfiend, gaining unparalleled power and knowledge of the occult. The coven wielded their magic to terrorize the village, using fear as a means to maintain control and impose their will on the inhabitants. But the villagers were not willing to succumb to the wicked whims of the coven. One fateful night, during the rise of the blood moon, the villagers gathered their courage and launched an uprising against the witches. The battle was intense, with magic clashing against magic, and screams echoing through the woods. In a final act of desperation, Agatha Blackthorn unleashed a spell of unspeakable darkness, intending to lay waste to the entire village. However, the villagers’ combined strength and resilience proved stronger than expected, and they managed to cast a powerful counter-spell, trapping the coven and their malevolent master in a pocket of time and space. The Blackthorn Manor, the coven’s sinister home, was locked within a realm where time stood still, separating it from the outside world. Legend has it that the manor now exists as a twisted and haunted dimension, accessible only on the eve of Halloween when the boundary between the living and the dead is thinnest. For centuries, the tale of the Witch Coven and their malevolent doings was passed down through generations, becoming a chilling bedtime story to warn children of the dangers of dabbling in the dark arts. The Blackthorn Manor became a haunting myth, feared and whispered about, keeping curious souls away. But as the centuries passed, the memory of the coven’s terrifying deeds began to fade, and the sinister presence inside the Blackthorn Manor started to stir. Strange occurrences plagued the village once again, and eerie shadows seemed to dance in the moonlight. Now, it’s Halloween night, and the Blackthorn Manor has mysteriously appeared on the outskirts of the village, beckoning the brave and curious to enter its unholy halls. Those who dare to venture inside will face the wrath of the trapped coven, forced to confront their deepest fears and darkest nightmares. The spirits of the vengeful witches and the malevolent Shadowfiend will stop at nothing to regain their power and break free from their eternal prison. As the moon rises and the air thickens with eerie magic, the Witch Coven’s malevolence awaits those brave enough to step foot into the haunted attraction, for the boundary between reality and the supernatural blurs on this sinister Halloween night. Only time will tell if anyone can escape the clutches of the Witch Coven and the horrors lurking within the cursed Blackthorn Manor.
