Hells Devil Estate LLC – Year-Round Fear, Fueled by Passion

Mission Statement

At Hells Devil Estate LLC, our mission is to redefine fear as a year-round experience by combining theatrical performance, immersive storytelling, and community-driven passion. We aim to create an inclusive space where guests can escape reality and embrace the thrill of horror — while building a supportive, growth-focused environment for the next generation of haunt industry leaders.

Hells Devil Estate isn’t your average haunted house — we’re the first-ever fully operational, year-round haunt in the United States, launching our flagship location in Princeton, Illinois on August 29th. Founded by lifelong haunt enthusiast Jakob Harnesk, our vision is to deliver unforgettable, high-intensity horror experiences that go far beyond Halloween.

Born from over a decade of hands-on scare industry experience, Hells Devil Estate was built with one goal in mind:
👉 To make fear immersive, accessible, and unforgettable — every single day of the year.
