In a city with endless things to do, bump Nashville Nightmare to the top of your list this Halloween season. Nashville Nightmare is so much more than your average haunted house, this massive compound features four haunted attractions, a crazy clown carnival, live action zombie shooting, escape games, and more to ensure that there is something for everyone that dares to step through the gates .
This year’s attractions cover a wide variety of themes including:
Clown Alley: Boomer, the malevolent clown, ruled the Red Pumpkin Pale Carnival, a twisted nightmare of unspeakable horrors. Chased out of every town, the carnival set up in a small, unsuspecting village as Halloween approached. Behind the garish big top lay a dark secret—a portal to a nightmarish realm needing souls to sustain the carnival and grant eternal life. That Halloween, the carnival cast a shadow of fear, turning festive dreams into nightmares as Boomer and his crew hunted for fresh souls to feed their otherworldly hunger.
Castle Infernus: There exists a place where a portal to an underworld lies hidden. This foreboding realm is known as Castle Infernus, a domain where monstrous forms take shape and shadows dance with malevolence. These lands are not meant for mere mortals, yet the formidable ruler of this dark domain, Malum Lector, extends an eerie invitation. Despite the peril that awaits, the allure of the unknown beckons you to cross the threshold. Will you dare to venture into the heart of Castle Infernus?
Horror High: School For Ghouls: Hey, boils and ghouls! At Horror High, school doesn’t end just because you’re dead. We offer courses in Demonology, Voodoo, Possession, and more, including basics like Bumps in the Night and Corpse Hygiene. Master the art of haunting with our expert faculty of notorious specters. Don’t waste your afterlife—become a frightful legend! Tour our school tonight and start your ghoulish education! (Must be dead to apply.)
Vector Research: Alien Autopsy: Furious aliens, tired of being treated like labs by Dr. Hades, launch an attack on Vector Research staff. Chaos ensues as their reinforcements arrive, spreading advanced biotech across the city. Tentacled pseudopods and egg pods release multi-limbed arthropods, enslaving victims. The elite Omega Unit is deployed to contain the carnage, ready to use a self-destruct nuke to destroy the facility. Enter Decimator, the ultimate super soldier designed to combat such threats. Just pray Decimator doesn’t mistake you for the enemy amidst the chaos.
There are plenty of food and beverage options, plus two secret bars, and the new addition of s’mores stations to turn your trip to the haunted house into a night filled with thrills and fun. Nashville Nightmare is more than worth the trip and has earned its name as one of Music City’s best haunted houses.
