The Halloween season in Southern California is in full gear. And with it comes lots of seasonal event options. If you’re someone who likes to get a peek behind the curtain and enjoy Halloween events with likeminded folks, you won’t want to miss the Passport to Fear opportunities that HorrorBuzz and Haunted Attraction Network have in store in 2022.
The Summoning: Friday, October 7th
Face your fears at the historic San Francisco Mint as Into The Dark and Terror Vault presents the new immersive haunted attraction, The Summoning. Your Passport to Fear will give you access to the Fang Bang bar and a private Terror Vault for the VIP group. You’ll enjoy a special, private Q&A session with the creators of the Terror Vault, including the queen herself, Peaches Christ! Then you’ll be escorted to the entrance of the attraction where you will experience The Summoning. Following your time in The Summoning, you’ll enjoy a post-show, lights-on tour with Peaches Christ where you’ll be able to go behind the scenes and see how the horror is made!
Castle Dark: Saturday, October 8th
You’ll start with a private, behind-the-scenes tour of the haunt with its creators. You’ll then explore the scares with the lights on, up-close and personal. As night falls you’ll be able to enjoy one-time, group front-of-the-line entry to each of the mazes. Once you have survived Jinxx’s Funhouse of Terror, The House Next Door, and Morgana’s Revenge, you will be treated to a cafe meal, and unlimited rounds of mini-golf and rides on Ghost Blasters.
Urban Death: Tour of Terror: Saturday, October 14th
Return to the pitch-black terror of Zombie Joe’s with their all-new haunted house and theatre show, Urban Death: Tour of Terror. With this exclusive event, you’ll get to experience this legendary Halloween haunt first, then will go behind the scenes for a lights-on tour of Urban Death: Tour of Terror followed by a meet and greet and Q&A with the cast and creators of the show.
Bones’ Gulch: Saturday, October 15th
From the creators of Beware the Dark Realm, Restless Souls Manor, and The Farm comes a brand new vision of horror for Halloween and Haunt Fans alike. Bones’ Gulch follows the story of prospector Peter “Jack” Ossos who ventures west in search of gold. What he finds, however, is far more sinister. Bones’ Gulch is a Haunted Attraction with a heart-pounding scare zone, entertainment, food, and a haunt maze that can’t be missed. Your passport includes admission into Bones’ Gulch, a behind-the-scenes tour of the haunt and the haunted maze, a special Q&A event with the creators of Bones’ Gulch, and front-of-the-line access to the maze.
Halloween with The Willows: Saturday, October 29th
Tragedy has struck the Willows household, and guests are invited “home” to celebrate the life of a dearly departed friend. Drinks flow and dinner is served, but the night quickly takes a bizarre turn. It seems as though sinister forces are at work inside the house – and within the family. The maid insists she saw a dark figure stalking the home – was it a prowler, a spirit, or a figment of her imagination? The family’s friendly facade begins to crumble, and, soon, guests are taken on a twisted, fully interactive thrill-ride where they aren’t just witnessing a story unfold: they’re living it. Your Passport to Fear includes a chance to meet the cast for a post-show Q&A and go behind the scenes for this one-of-a-kind production.
Cemetery Lane: Saturday, October 30th
Come with us to a reimagined Halloween night from an era when the Addams Family, the Munsters, and residents of the Twilight Zone joined millions of 1950’s and 1960’s American families in their homes each week. The mid-century theme of this year’s Cemetery Lane will transport guests, young and old, to a time when horror comics and magazines like Famous Monsters of Filmland flew off the shelves, and the real-life fears generated by the Cold War caused many a nightmare. Enjoy your trick or treat experience along with a Q&A and meet and greet with creators, as well as an extra special trick-or-treat stop.
When asked about the creation of these Passport to Fear events, HorrorBuzz founder Norman Gidney had this to say: “Halloween and horror fans are a passionate and enthusiastic bunch, myself included. I wanted to use my platform as a bridge to connect fans with the creators of the scary fun that they love. The Passport to Fear events offer unprecedented access for those who want to go deeper into the fog.”
Haunted Attraction Network founder Philip Hernandez added, “What makes these experiences fun for us is connecting fans with the creators. Independent attractions are seeped in passion, and fans will get to experience that firsthand by engaging with the creators and then experiencing the events as a VIP.”
