New England's Longest Outdoor Haunted Attraction Is A Terrifying Massachusetts Must-Visit

Summer is over, the leaves are falling, and for all horror lovers out there, that means one thing and one thing only: Halloween is here. If you want to visit New England's longest outdoor haunted attraction, look no further than Fear Town Haunted House in Seekonk, Massachusetts. For thrill-seekers and Halloween enthusiasts, this is a must-visit. This chilling 45-minute walkthrough experience combines the perfect mix of terror, suspense, and immersive storytelling. Fear Town is a fully realized horror world that'll plunge you into your deepest fears; visit if you dare

What makes Fear Town stand out from any other haunted house is its indoor-outdoor setting. This sprawling, multi-acre attraction winds through the dense woods and run-down, chilling buildings that have been abandoned in this forest for years. Better yet, it's not just one haunted house, but three. Each house is unique and has its own theme with custom-built sets, backdrops, and props. It takes about 15 to 20 minutes to get through each one.

As you wander through the dark trails and structures, the eerie atmosphere of the forest, combined with realistic special effects, ensures that you will leave scared. Trained live actors are costumed as the stuff of nightmares (masks, makeup, outfits, the whole shebang). Positioned where you least expect them, of course, they will jump out, scare, chase, make hellish noises, and interact with you to really drag you into the experience. One of the haunted houses is full-contact, where the actors are permitted to touch you, so beware.

Tips for your Fear Town Haunted House visit

Feat Town has over 1,000 five-star Google reviews, so they must be doing something terribly right. If you're sold on the experience, this New England haunted house becomes available at the end of September and shuts down the first weekend of November. You can buy tickets at the door, but if you buy them online here, you can save $5 and ensure your desired timeslot is available. The experience is open to groups (with special rates for parties with over 15 people), couples, families, and anyone who wants the life scared out of them; however, it isn't recommended for children under 12 years old (although there is no explicit age restriction). Everyone must sign a waiver before participating.

Pro tip: Wear clothing you're willing to get dirty, and ensure you have some sturdy shoes (like boots good enough for hiking and walking through rough terrain). If it rains and the attraction needs to close, tickets will be honored for another night. Do check Fear Town's Facebook page for updates regarding inclement weather cancellations. Besides the 45-minute experience, the Fear Town complex has a midway area with not-so-scary entertainment that you can enjoy before or after the haunted house. Here, you'll find interactive games, concessions, bonus experiences, and all other essential venue amenities. Parking is free. If you want to amp up the adrenaline this Halloween season, Fear Town will give you an unforgettable night of terror. But beware: Once you enter, don't expect to come out unscathed.
