“Where Dreams, Become Nightmares”

Set in the ’50s – ’70s eras, this house plunges you into the twisted psyche of a deeply disturbed woman. Reality warps as you wander through vintage rooms, twisting memory with madness. Will you make it out alive or become a part of her fractured world forever?

This Haunted House is not recommended for
anyone under 12 years of age.

As Halloween draws near, Russo’s Ring of Terror rolls into Brownwood, ready to send thrills and chills down your spine. This Dark Carnival is no laughing matter. With sinister clowns lurking just beyond the spotlight, your first show may just be your last.

This Haunted House is not recommended for
anyone under 12 years of age.
