Lost Spirits Las Vegas Builds Atmosphere around the Bottle

November 2, 2021 By Taylor Winters In Review, Theme Parks & Installations 1 Comment

The din of the crowded Vietnam street fills my ear. Sweet notes of toffee and vanilla linger on my tongue. I have just stepped out of church, and I have a submarine to catch. Lost Spirits Las Vegas is a spirit tasting tour in immersive environments. I am an adventurer in a world created by [...]

Escape Blair Witch is the Closest You’ll Get to Being in a Horror Movie

October 25, 2021 By Taylor Winters In Escape Rooms, Immersive Horror, Out of State Haunts, Review No Comments

The door is locked tight—protecting us from whoever, or whatever is outside. But there’s missing rangers out there—and now a missing search party—I need to find them. As I slide the last key into the padlock and it turns, the door inches open. Cold air rushes in, the smell of evergreens and pine follows closely [...]

Freakling Bros’ The Men’s Room Adds to a Stellar Line Up of Haunts

October 25, 2021 By Taylor Winters In Freakling Bros, Haunted House, Out of State Haunts, Review No Comments

The crackle of electricity echoes through the tight chambers. A man, strapped down to an electric chair, jerks back and forth, current coursing through his flesh. Somehow, his death doesn’t bother me—I already know what awaits me in the next room; and that is what has my anxiety racing. I step across the threshold into [...]

Hotel Fear and Asylum: A Wonderland Without a Way Out

October 24, 2021 By Sarah Renteria In Haunted House, Las Vegas Haunts, Out of State Haunts, Review No Comments

Desperately inhaling the heavy, stale air, I stumble through the fog as best I can. I can’t help but be reminded of the girl who warned me of the other patients, especially the one who plucked her right eye out of its socket. As my own eyes search hungrily for any indication of a horizon, [...]

Late Night Ghost Tour – Zak Bagans’ Haunted Museum Is the Real Deal

November 28, 2020 By Madeline Nelson In Immersive Horror, Installations / Pop-Ups, Review 2 Comments

There’s something strange about the cabinet in front of me. It’s not the altar inside, or the strange doll staring back at me, there’s just something about the space I’m in, and I can’t tear my eyes away. I don’t know how much time has passed, but I suddenly realize that I’ve lost my group. [...]

Hallowheels Las Vegas’ Trapped Is a Beautiful Show But Lacks Engagement

November 23, 2020 By Madeline Nelson In Haunted House, Out of State Haunts, Review No Comments

A low and ominous rumbling is coming from the walls around us. Something isn’t right, but there’s nothing we can do about it. Our car is covered by camouflage netting and we’re blocked in on all sides. Suddenly we hear some crackling on the radio and the loud voice of mission control: You idiot! You [...]

Horrorwood Video Returns with Highway to Hell and Brings Drive In Scares

November 16, 2020 By Madeline Nelson In Immersive Horror, Majestic Repertory Theatre, Out of State Haunts, Review No Comments

The screen in front of us crackles iconically as it goes dark. Left in total blackness and silence, we heed our guide’s warning: Don’t Breathe. Suddenly, lights flash and we see a young girl in tattered clothing with her long, dark hair falling in front of her eyes. As quickly as we see her, she [...]

Las Vegas Haunts’ Asylum and Hotel Fear – A Halloween Fixture Not To Be Missed

October 29, 2020 By Taylor Winters In Haunted House, Las Vegas Haunts, Out of State Haunts, Review No Comments

Room 13, you must make it to Room 13—it’s the only place you’re safe. A hidden door slides open, revealing a long, claustrophobic hallway lined with rooms. I look forward and see that each room is labeled with a 13. This will be harder than I thought. I open the first door, revealing a woman […]

Fright Ride Las Vegas – A Somewhat Socially Distanced Ride Through A Traditional Haunt

October 28, 2020 By Madeline Nelson In Haunted House, Out of State Haunts, Review No Comments

We hear the rev of a chainsaw long before we see the clown running towards us. We cower as we go past, but this clown isn’t going to let us off easy. She jumps onto our golf cart, sweeping at our feet as we scramble and cling to each other. She finally hops off but [...]

The Manson Family: An Opera Takes Viewers Down a Dark and Disturbing Path

December 6, 2019 By Deb Kavis In Immersive Theater, Majestic Repertory Theatre, Musicals, Review No Comments

It’s dark. Lynette “Squeaky” Fromme has just finished administering a tab of acid to each of us in the group. A blacklight turns on, illuminating the four once-black walls now covered in wild, white scribbled messages. These ceiling-to-floor anarchic rantings and ravings are spilled straight from Charles Manson’s maniacal mastermind. My eyes glow with wonder […]
