❓Is this a haunted house?

No. Hells Devil Estate is not a haunted house.
It’s a haunted immersive theater experience—a fully interactive, actor-driven horror performance where you become part of the story. You're not walking through… you're living it.

🎭 What is a haunted immersive theater experience?

This is where horror meets live performance.
Guests move room to room through detailed sets while actors guide you through a terrifying narrative. Each scene is interactive and immersive.

Expect:

• Actor-led moments in every room

• Small-group entry for maximum immersion

• Personalized scares and shifting storylines

• A different experience every time you visit

🔄 Does the experience change if I come back?

Yes—even on the same night.
We rotate cast members, adjust scenes, and use alternate dialogue and cues. Every walkthrough is slightly different—even back-to-back.
You might uncover secrets, hidden characters, or alternate endings on return visits.

🗓️ When are you open?

• Weekend Preview Nights Begin: August 2, 2025 (Fri–Sun only)

• Grand Opening: August 29, 2025

• Open 365 Days a Year starting August 29
  We’re open every single day—including holidays.

💵 How much are tickets?

• General Admission: $30

• VIP Admission: $80 (skip the longer line)

• Season Passes & Memberships available for unlimited access

🤚 Do the actors touch you? Can I touch them?

No physical contact is allowed—by either side.
Our actors will get close, scream, interact, and scare you—but they will never touch you.
Likewise, we ask that you do not touch the actors, props, costumes, or scenery at any time.
Violation of this rule will result in removal without refund.

🧒 Is it family-friendly?

This experience is intense. We recommend it for guests 13 and older. Younger visitors may attend with an adult but should be prepared for extreme scares.

🚪 Can I leave if I get too scared?

Yes. Emergency exits are in every area. Our staff is trained to safely guide you out at any time.

🧯 Is it safe?

Yes. We operate under an A-3 occupancy permit and follow strict safety codes:

• Clearly marked emergency exits

• Fire safety systems and nightly checks

• Security on-site

• Zero-tolerance for aggressive behavior

⚠️ Do you use fog and strobe lights?

Yes.
We use fog machines, strobe lights, sudden audio, and tight spaces. If you’re sensitive to these effects, we recommend caution. Warning signs are posted at the entrance.

🛍️ What’s in the storefront?
