Hotel of Terror/Dungeons of Doom
Springfield, MO

Located in Downtown Springfield

Springfield’s TWO oldest and largest haunted houses.

The Hotel of Terror was established in October 1978. It was opened for the kids to have something safe and fun to do during the Halloween season. Owners strive to provide a safe place to bring your whole family. There is always some sort of creature lurking around each corner. They use all four floors and you get to exit down the 96 foot slide. 

They have had the privilege to scare your grandparents, parents, you, your kids and grandchildren to come for forty plus years and look forward to many more. 

OPEN ::: September 10 - October 31 (Check link for specific dates and times)

The Haunted Mines at Pumpkin Hollow 

Ash Grove, MO

Southwest Missouri's Newest Haunted Attraction opens this fall in Ash Grove, Mo!!

Something is stirring beneath the surface. One of Missouri’s oldest Lead mines, sunk in 1875, has been disturbed and there will be a reawakening!

Monster Corn Maze 

Cabool, MO
Distance from Springfield - 1 hour

The Monster Corn Maze is more than just a corn maze haunt.  We have delved deep into a dark wooded forest, but before you can escape the corn to the woods our 3 story house of horror blocks your path.  The creatures who once had infested only the corn have consumed an entire village that has grown within the infected woods.  Scream all you can but don't expect to be heard, for the village walls and thick wooded forest have a way of muffling the extreme screams that the creatures you encounter are sure to invoke.

OPEN ::: September 24 - October 30 (Check link for specific dates and times)

RIP at Myer’s Inn 

Carthage, MO

Distance from Springfield - 1 Hour

Featuring over 12,000 square feet of terror, the Myer's Inn Haunt is not for the faint of heart. Room after room of frightening fun, come face to face with the creepiest of creatures that lurk throughout!  Each room is uniquely themed and different from the next, complete with eerie hallways, darkness, strobe lights and macabre music. This is one hotel where you may not want to stay the night - that is, if you make it out alive!

Haunted River Float 

Waynesville, MO

Distance from Springfield - 1 Hour and 20 minutes

The Haunted River Float is a twist on the typical Haunted House concept. As soon as you pull onto the property you will begin to experience the uniqueness of this haunt. The 1/2 mile float on the river, in the dark with River Monsters, is only the beginning of this scare.
