Top 4 Must-Visit Haunted Houses In Las Vegas for 2024
Once the air gets crisp, and the brutal heat melts away, fall is here in Las Vegas. One of the best parts of fall is the Halloween season. During Halloween, new horror movies are shown in theaters, fun costumes hit store shelves and haunted houses finally sprout. Here are some fun haunted houses in Las Vegas that you need to check out.
Haunted Houses in Las Vegas for 2024
Las Vegas Haunts
Located at 4300 Meadows Lane (right at Meadows Mall), Las Vegas Haunts has two attractions: Hotel Fear and Asylum. The Hotel Fear attraction is based on a story about the Feoray family who emigrated from Europe where they owned and operated an inn. Over time, the hotel had murders and tragedy, which contributed to its “ghostly” visitors.
The Asylum — the other attraction in this haunted house — is based on The Meadview Health Sanctuary. According to the website, “Under the guise of a mental health facility there have been some unknown and hypothetical activities at the Asylum. Rumors abound, everything from genetic enhancing to viral testing. To appease local concerns, the Asylum is allowing visitors to view the facility.”
Now these stories are not real. But, it’s a fun layer to the overall “haunt” experience. VIP tickets are about $35, according to the website. We recommend buying tickets at the event when you attend because tickets are non-refundable. This is another one that’s always on the list when it comes to top haunted houses in Las Vegas.

31 Freak Street
31 Freak Street is located at Tivoli Village. It’s a fun haunted house with two attractions: Intruders and Twisted Terrors. The cost of admission is $40 for both attractions, according to the website.
This haunted house will start Oct. 4 and will end on Halloween. The reviews are mostly positive with people saying that the props and costumes are great.
Moapa Valley Corn Maze
This is one of our favorites! The Moapa Valley Corn Maze has four main scary attractions: The Haunted Hayride ($6), The Haunted Corn Maze ($12), Zombie Paintball ($25) and The Shriek Shack ($12), the website states.
This is such a fun experience, and there are other attractions aside from the haunted experiences. There is a petting zoo, little activities for the kids and fun food and drinks. The address is 3715 N Pioneer Rd, Logandale, NV 89021. It’s a drive from Las Vegas, but it’s worth the trip! It’s fun to get a group of friends and enjoy the attractions.
Freakling Bros Horror Shows
This is another famous and local Las Vegas haunt that is adored by many. This year, this attraction will be at Desert Breeze Park. In the past, there were three haunted houses. We’re excited to see how Freakling Bros will innovate the space and give us new experiences.
According to the haunted house’s website, Freakling Bros started over 40 years ago with Duke Mollner, his wife Ginnie, and oldest son Daniel. They decorated their house and started scaring children during Halloween night.
Over time, the “one-night” only attraction gained attention from the Las Vegas Review-Journal. The house became more intricate and produced.
“The home haunt was not a commercial venture and only performed each year for one night – Halloween. This was satisfying enough for a while, but after over a decade of scaring Trick or Treaters, Duke was craving more,” the website said.
Since then, the house has transformed into a Las Vegas tradition, entertaining families for years.
We’re excited about this year’s plethora of haunts. We miss some of our past experiences like
Fright Dome (if you know, you know). But, we have so many local attractions that will be perfect for this Halloween season. If you’re ready to quench your thirst for the scary then check out these haunted houses in Las Vegas for this Halloween season.

We have so many options for all kinds of cuisine, how do you know where to go to get any of it and have a guaranteed good experience? That’s easy. You ask the locals. And when it comes to finding the best milkshakes in Vegas, we don’t mind doing that legwork for you. Fine, fine. We’ll drink a lot of ice cream deliciousness and report back. Twist our arms.

Obviously you can head to the Las Vegas Strip at any time when you’re looking for any kind of food. And you’ll always find a plethora of options to satisfy those taste buds. The Ghirardelli Chocolate Factory sells the most amazing chocolate milkshakes you’ve ever had. So much so that it’s hard to finish one. They’re that rich. Ben & Jerry’s Ice Cream Shop is also an option, with a name that’s almost synonymous with “ice cream” these days. They have milkshakes on their menu.
Or you could always stop in to Sugar Factory on the Strip for a drink that’s half shake, half art. And that always comes with the chance for a celebrity sighting too, if that’s your thing.
All of those options and more are something locals might suggest if we were headed to the Strip. But when you’re not planning to deal with all that traffic and tourism, it’s not worth the drive just to get a milkshake. Sorry, Bobby. Your milkshakes are good, but they’re not “fight all the cars and crowds, pay for parking, and spend $15 on a single shake” good.
Where Locals Go For The Best Milkshakes In Vegas
Okay, Flay’s shakes probably are that good, but we don’t need to make that sacrifice when we have so many great options for milkshakes that are closer to home. We asked locals on Reddit where they like to go for the best milkshakes in Vegas. These are the top five places they said.
