Put some excitement in your vacation when you visit the
Great Smoky Mountains!
We are a family owned and operated, three story, year-round haunted attraction still owned by a descendant of one of the original owners. We support small businesses as we are one ourselves. We opened our doors in 1980 and have been scaring Smoky Mountain visitors and daring locals for 44 years!
The house is designed and decorated in an early 1900’s style old Victorian persona with ever growing attention to detail. In the beginning we were a “spooky fun house” type attraction but have evolved over the years becoming Gatlinburg’s Oldest and Scariest Haunted House!
Recently (in 2012-2015) we did several major renovations, scouring antique stores and other curious establishments, creating a much more authentic and chilling atmosphere we hope will delight you in the most unnerving of ways. Far more recently we did major renovations to the outside of the building as well. But we are constantly updating and try to add new and terrifying surprises each year so come see our latest additions!
We appreciate your patronage and take your feedback seriously so feel free to give us a holler and let us know how we are doing. We work hard and strive to get great reviews from all of you! Be sure to see what others have to say about us on TripAdvisor, Google and other popular review sites.
Come visit us on your vacation in the bloody heart of the Smoky Mountains and have the fright of your life! You can find us a little off the beaten path on the quieter street of River Road but still very close to all the hustle and bustle of the main street. Look for the eerie glow in the darkness, we will be waiting for you in the shadows. We want to hear you SCREAM!!
Sincerely,
The Family of Mysterious Mansion

You have questions We have answers
Here are some of our most commonly asked questions. If you do not find the answers you need, feel free to contact us below.
Q- How long does it take to go through?
A- It is a self guided tour, you go at your own pace so it depends on you and how long it takes you to find your way out. On an average it usually takes about 15-20 minutes. Please do not run! There are many stairs and dark areas, we do not want you to hurt yourself!
Q- How scary is it?
A- Everyone has different scare tolerances so for many it can be very intense and terrifying while others may not let their imagination get the better of them. If you are very difficult to scare bring someone who isn’t and enjoy the show! Terrified friends can be quite amusing!
Q- Are children allowed?
A- Yes, however, children must be accompanied by an adult. It is not recommended for small children but we leave that decision to the discretion of the parents. Some kids make it through just fine, others don’t make it past the first room. It can be an intense experience for certain audiences and there is some mild gore. Our special Halloween shows on October weekends may be much more intense.
Q- Do you have live actors?
A- yes
Q- Will they touch me?
A- Nothing living will. In return, please do not touch anything living in the house. Keep in mind monsters are people too. If they are physically attacked it is legally considered assault. Vandals will also be prosecuted.
Q- If me or my child get too scared and we exit early can we get a refund?
A- If you exit early or refuse to go in because you are too afraid we have done our job well, so no, we do not honor refunds for that reason. Please make sure you want to go in before you pay. There are several emergency exits located throughout the house that can be used as chicken exits if the show is too intense for you. If you do not enter after you paid, we can however give you a pass to come back later if you regain your courage or you can give to a friend. The passes do not expire if you decide to save it and return another year.
Q- Do you have restrooms?
A-Yes, they are located around the left side of the building. ~Please do not use our utility closet!
Q- Are you handicap accessible?
A- Unfortunately it’s an old house and there are many levels and stairs. If we were able to rebuild it and make it wheelchair accessible we would certainly do so. We mean this most sincerely.
Q- Do you use strobe lights or fog?
A- We do use strobe lights and occasionally use fog machines. If you have Epilepsy or health issues that strobe lights may be a danger to you please use utmost caution. Just let us know and we will do our best to accommodate your needs so that you may enter safely. If you have an allergy to fog fluid ask the cashier if fog is currently in use before entering.
WE ARE LOCATED JUST A LITTLE OFF THE BEATEN PATH BUT STILL VERY CLOSE TO THE MAIN PARKWAY OF DOWNTOWN
