Enter Netherworld Haunted House
Netherworld Haunted House is a self-guided walkthrough haunted house attraction that develops an original theme every year to keep the scares fresh and new. The haunted house was created by professional movie costume designers, meaning every monster they create is uniquely terrifying.
This gives Netherworld Haunted House the unique distinction of being one of the scariest haunted houses in Georgia and the Southeast, as well as one of the top haunted houses in the United States.
Haunts
The haunted house is packed with an incredible amount of horrifying detail, with “More scares per square inch than any other haunted house in town,” as Forsyth County News put it. Expect jumps at every turn coming from above, below, and beside you.
The haunts at Netherworld use custom movie-quality special effects, amazing actors, vividly detailed sets, and truly unique themes that change every year to keep the thrills coming.
Netherworld features two haunts for you to experience, typically with one being a traditional monster theme and the second being sci-fi themed. The haunts for 2023 feature Primordial and Cryptid Chaos.
Primordial unleashes the forces of nature to stop the unspeakable horrors emerging from the Netherworld, saving the world from destruction.
Cryptid Chaos sees your favorite cryptids like Mothman, The Jersey Devil, and the Chupacabra fighting against the Boogeyman as they try to escape the Top Secret facility known as The Box.
For the 2023 season, Netherworld Haunted House is open September 22-23; September 29-October 1, October 5-8, 10-15, 17-31, November 3-5, and 10-11.
The haunted house hours range by night. Typically, the haunted house if open from 7 p.m. to 10:30 p.m. and later on weekend nights and nights closer to Halloween.
Online tickets range from $25 to $40 depending on dates, whereas walk-up tickets range from $30 to $50. There are also SpeedPass tickets ranging from $50 to $65 depending on dates.
Tickets are valid for entry to both haunted houses.
