Head west to otherworldly Jerome, Ariz., a former copper-mining town with an eerie reputation dating back to the times of the Wild West. Only 400 known residents live in the town today, in addition to rusted equipment, abandoned homes and the rumored ghostly residents from the days of frequent mining accidents and gunfights.

Halloween is the time of year people pay to visit haunted houses across the United States to be scared out of their socks. Every year, there are the attractions that go above and beyond to give guests the frightening experience they crave.

 

Starting in Tooele, Utah, Asylum 49 is sure to give visitors nightmares for weeks after their visit. Constructed in 1873, this hospital is located next to a cemetery that adds to the haunted vibes radiating around the vicinity. If you attend this creepy attraction, be prepared to be touched, grabbed and pulled away from your group. The attraction is known for strapping visitors to hospital beds while the crazies go to work scaring you to the fullest.

 

Down in Terrell, Texas, Thrillvania is an intense attraction spread over 50 acres of frightful territory. The props and special effects were designed by Disney Imagineers, so the artistry is done in the most surreal way. Visitors can enjoy three haunted walk-throughs for the price of one admission ticket.

 

The Dent School House has a true, gruesome story of a custodian who brutally murdered several children and kept the bodies decaying in the school’s basement. The haunted attraction walks you through the terrifying hallways and classrooms with scenes of monsters torturing victims. Actors will not touch you unless you buy the special pass that indicates you want to be.
