Halloween

Step back in time to the chilling Edo-era of Japan in The Haunting of Oiwa and come face-to-face with Lady Oiwa

who returns from the dead seeking revenge after being poisoned by her unfaithful husband. 

Over at the Pontianak house, thrill-seekers will need to tread carefully in a Malay village as they survive the various hair-raising scenes and stories of the Pontianak unfolding before their eyes,

from how she was created, to the banana trees where she resides, and the laundry area where she sniffs out the next victim.

For the first time, the infamous long-haired female vampiric ghost gets her very own haunted house named after her.  

Enter the world of Killuminati – the Chinese secret society of vampires that has existed for centuries – where mystery, controversy and nightmares await. 

Watch out for never-before-seen stunts and expect lots of twists in this highly interactive house where even the bravest souls may end up in different secret rooms! 

The highly-anticipated Stranger Things haunted house will feature the most number of thematic rooms to date. 

Fans will be transported into twelve artfully recreated scenes and storylines, from the menacing Hawkins National Laboratory, to the Byers home adorned with an erratic display of flashing Christmas lights and the eerie Upside Down woods. 

Fans can make their way through the Chinese-themed Pagoda of Peril, trapped with malevolent demons and terrifying spirits roaming viciously around the prison.

Get thrown into chaos in Apocalypse: Earth as Mother Earth unleashes her most terrifying forces and takes over New York.

Fans can take a break from the screams and join the charismatic Gideon Grim, the Motivational Death Coach, as he captivates guests with tips on highly effective scaring in DEAD Talks! 

DEAD Talks is an all-new, witty, seminar-style show with cutting-edge illusions, electrifying dancing and acrobatics at the Pantages Hollywood Theater. 

Cannibal Witness the ancient tribe of man-hunters in Cannibal, where the bodies of rivals killed in revenge are being devoured. 

Armour up for an action-packed laser tag battle against an army of zombies thirsty for blood.
