Since you were a kid, you've heard about the haunted house with the giant slide, the one hidden out in the woods, the one where you can win your money back, but you were never able to find it... until now! It’s HellsGate Haunted House in Lockport, IL.

Review This Haunt
  • It was pretty cool

    I didn't find it scary at all because it was so packed with people that it was a line the entire time all the way through. The costumes and rooms were very high quality though. If you're more into the theatrical aspect than the scare aspect of haunted houses, this is for you. I've had much creepier times in small haunted houses in the middle of nowhere with no one in them so it actually feels like if the actors do kill you, no one would know since you're isolated lol.

  • Email Verified Had a scary time

    My GF and I had a wonderful and scary time in the haunt. Actors were fantastic and the setting was excellent. The zombies in the woods scared the daylight out of her. One of them even chased us in the dark.

  • Email Verified Wow!

    Wow! There was so much to see and experience.The walk through the dark trail freaked me out. Had great props, set designs and jump scares that had startled me whole. Totally worth it for the money spent on tickets. I would certainly come again next year.

  • Scary attraction

    Scary attraction. We were scared from the moment we walked in.Great cast and nice effects. The house had well defined rooms, creepy sets and grotesque characters. The passages were narrow, and claustrophobic.

  • Email Verified Bone chilling terrors

    This was the best haunt I visited this year. Everything was perfectly timed.The basement had more horrors and bone chilling moments. The scare actors were phenomenal in terms of their professionalism and performance.

  • Unending series of terrors!

    Unending series of terrors! That is what HellsGate for you. Props and special effects were top-notch. The cemetery had its shares of terrifying moments. The slide was one of a kind. The mansion had creepy sets, props, and was multi-floored. The basement virtually transports you to a different world altogether.The experience was so awesome. Staff was helpful. Recommended!!

  • Well-done haunted house!

    This was a very well-done haunted house! Cemetery was realistic, with cool special effects and scares. Each room was different. Make sure that you never miss this one!

  • Highly recommended!

    We in a group of five friends visited this place last weekend and bought the general admission ticket. Spent approx. an hour in the queue, but the actors kept us engaged by scaring us. All the actors were pretty awesome, and we were amazed by so much detailed graphics in their costumes and they never left the character and scared us like a hell lot of time. Highly recommended!

  • Email Verified Haunt with all fears and phobias

    The haunt virtually plays with all your hidden fears and phobias. The walk through the woods was awesome. Few of those terrors had sent a chill through my spine. My hubby was startled too. If you are looking for a haunt with an above par scare factor, this is the one to go to.

  • Email Verified Horror freaks you will love it!

    This is so much fun with my family every year! Scares and scenes were timed well without any lags or breaks. The actors had the noblest attire and makeover. The props used to scare the holly hell out of us. I do recommend this haunt to all horror freaks.

  • Adventure through the darkness

    We were a few of the last visitors but they still had the entire event in full swing for us. We knew it is going to be a blast as we stepped inside. There was fear at varying levels in this multilevel mansion. I squeezed my self through secret passages to unveil ghastly secrets. It was certainly fun for all ages and we had a quality family time together. An adventure through the darkness coming face to face with the undead. The giant flies hidden in the woods will give you the creeps. Will make this my annual event.
