Thirteenth Floor Entertainment Group, the world’s largest Halloween-themed entertainment company, is bringing spooky terror nationwide this Halloween season with a massive lineup of attractions and events that span multiple states across the country.
This year’s lineup is loaded with brand new add-ons and experiences as well as returning favorites, with highlights including Shaqtoberfest aboard the haunted Queen Mary in Long Beach, California, which returns for its second Halloween season.
Shaqtoberfest is a large-scale Halloween festival featuring a wide variety of horror-themed attractions and interactive experiences that capture Shaquille O’Neal’s beloved personality. The staple of Shaqtoberfest resides in its arrangement of distinct zones for guests to explore. Within each zone, an assortment of bone-chilling activities awaits.
Additionally, the Los Angeles Haunted Hayride celebrates its 15th anniversary this year, taking over Griffith Park in Los Angeles, California from September 22 through Halloween.
Celebrating the Haunted Hayride’s 15th anniversary, Thirteenth Floor is significantly updating the experience to keep longtime fans on their toes this Halloween season. New additions to this year’s show include brand-new wagons with seating options, updated effects, several new horror scenes, all-new add-on experiences, and a new maze titled Hellbilly Halloween.
DELUSION, the gold standard of horror theater, also returns to Los Angeles this year.
This year’s chilling narrative, “Nocturnes & Nightmares,” brings more to the Delusion saga than meets the eye. A mysterious figure, only identified as The Author, seemingly birthed every Delusion story from its inception—bringing words to life and ink to reality. But when is a gift not a gift? Now, with the elusive author missing and Delusion characters hell-bent on protecting their creator, audiences (Delusionals) will need to track down The Author and help finish their most important work yet.
And for the first time ever, the popular Magic of the Jack O’Lanterns Experience comes to both Denver and Los Angeles for Halloween 2023.
From September 22nd through October 1st on select nights, Whittier Narrows Park in LA and The Hudson Gardens in Denver will be transformed into a larger-than-life pumpkin experience, featuring an awe-inspiring array of hand-carved jack-o’-lanterns, mesmerizing light displays, and a host of festive activities to delight adults and children alike.
And that’s only the beginning, as this year’s epic lineup from Thirteenth Floor Entertainment Group brings the terror to Chicago, Texas, Phoenix, Jacksonville, Nashville and New Orleans!
From The Old Joliet Haunted Prison to House of Torment: Haunted Houses, Terror on the Fox, Nashville Nightmare, New Orleans Nightmare, and the world famous 13th Floor Haunted Houses in Denver, Houston, Chicago, San Antonio, Jacksonville, and Phoenix, it’ll be the most fun America has ever had being scared!
