Inside The Haunt

How is Holiday Nightmares different from your regular season show? 

We are running two of our regular season attractions (Unhinged and Conley Farm) with a seasonal update for the decor and costumes, including falling snow, over 10,000 light bulbs and 10+ Christmas trees. All of the attractions will feature beloved horror icons like Freddy, Jason, and Michael Myers—but with lots of Christmas flair and a bit of pent up holiday stress.

Is Nightmare on Edgewood scary? 

Yes. We are Indy's most intense haunted house. Check out our reviews and testimonials to learn more.

Will I be touched?

Yes, we are a full-contact haunted attraction. You WILL be touched (unless you purchase a Chicken Ticket).

Can I opt out of being touched?

Yes, for an additional $10 you may purchase a Chicken Ticket, which grants access to all of the attractions, except you will wear a bright yellow "chicken" vest, signaling to our actors that you DO NOT want the full contact, hands on interactive experience.

Are there strobe lights, smoke and fog? Is it dark?

Yes. People who may be sensitive to extreme conditions, including fog and smoke, strobe and other intense lighting, the dark, and sudden loud noises should NOT visit Nightmare on Edgewood.

Could I be thrown out? 

Yes. Violation of any of our rules—including touching the actors—could result in your removal from the attraction with no refund.

All ages are welcome; however, the event is an extreme haunted attraction; please use discretion when bringing young children.

I'm pregnant, should I go through the haunted house?

If I have asthma, epilepsy or heart issues, can I go through the haunted house?

We do not recommend people with asthma go through the haunted house. If cleared by your doctor to go through the haunt, bring your inhaler or another device that may help you breathe better, as we have numerous fog and haze machines throughout the haunt.
