A Terrifying Visit to the 13th Floor Haunted House in Denver

One of the scariest haunted houses in the country is open now!

September 26, 2024

13th Floor Haunted House is now open with new experiences and attraction themes select nights through November 9th!

Celebrating 17 years of scares in the Mile High, this season brings terrifying twists and turns, new characters, and new add-on attractions that are sure to thrill.

ENTER IF YOU DARE. 





๐Ÿ˜ฑ๐Ÿ˜จ Our Visit

I can't handle a haunted house because I wouldn't sleep for a year. So I sent my husband and 13-year-old daughter for a night of thrills together at the 13th Floor Haunted House! They're both very into spooky experiences, and it was a fantastic Daddy & Daughter night out for them. They had a BLAST! 



It would be a fun experience for a group of adults or a family outing for families with tweens/teens (the recommended age is 12.) There is also a Monster Free hour on select Sundays in October for those who may not yet be fans of the jump scare! 


๐Ÿคก๐Ÿ‘ป ALL NEW EXPERIENCES!

For the first time, there will be two separate entrances into the haunt this year - making it a brand new experience for even seasoned haunt-goers. 




Scare-lovers can also check out all-new add-on experiences, including Mini Escape Games and My FrightFilm, a new feature allowing guests to relive the screams through strategically placed cameras and two brand-new Secret Bars. Shot Spot Arcade Secret Bar can be found in a seemingly abandoned arcade, where guests will be greeted by the resident demon and offered a refreshing shot of liquid courage before continuing their journey. The Attic Secret Bar is buried deep inside the 13th Floor and is a refuge for those clever enough to find it. 

A favorite adult attraction, the Shriekeasy Bar (21+), will return with upgraded offerings and new decor. The haunt’s special R.I.P. Cabanas will be available for booking this season with new themes and decor for a VIP haunt experience. 

Scare-lovers will be thrilled to see the return of ‘The Sacred Skull: A Tiki Tarot Experience,’ Class Axe Throwing, Behind-The-Screams tours (offered select Saturdays in October), The Graveyard Shift: Zombie Shooting Gallery, and No Name’s Curtain Chaos. 


๐Ÿ‘‘๐Ÿด‍โ˜ ๏ธ๐ŸŒฒThree New Themes

Three new themes inside the haunt will take visitors through Crimson Night, where the Blood Queen plans to resurrect her deceased King. The night doesn’t end as guests enter Nautical Nightmare to find Captain Rust Hook and his skeletal crew seizing souls on Halloween when the Blood Moon's glow thins the veil between worlds. The nightmare continues through a secluded forest with Macabre, where a twisted taxidermist merges human bodies with animal parts. Will they make it out in one piece?
