The Halloween season can bring out the best, the worst, and the scariest of people. The Trilogy of Terror, a haunted house, encompasses the spirit of Halloween. From witches to vampires, the three haunted houses within Trilogy keep the visitors on their toes throughout the entire house.

There are three haunted house options: The Coven of Thirteen, Castle Vampire, and Gates of Hell. Gates of Hell is said to be the scariest out of the three, with a safe word they tell all visitors for an easy way out of Hell. Prices to enter The Coven of Thirteen or Castle Vampire run for $14 with an age minimum of nine years old. The rated R Gates of Hell entrance fee is $15, and participants must be eighteen years old. The $35 value pack includes all three haunted houses.

Inside the various haunted houses, participants can find masked characters, ghosts, skeletons, spurious blood, red fog, and dripping mucus.

“My favorite part was having to walk through a room filled red fog because you could not see anything near you. The scariest part was when we had to crawl on our hands and knees through a very narrow and cramped room,” said Caroline Fortino.

According to tophunts.com, Trilogy is rated the fourth haunted house in the world! With this title, comes a high demand with long lines. The line to buy tickets was a 30-minute wait, and on top of that there was another 30-minute line to get into a single house. To get through one house takes anywhere from five to ten minutes. Is waiting an hour in line worth the five minutes of excitement? It is up to you to decide whether it is worth it.

These attractions are only open during the month October, so the opportunity to go is closing quickly. To experience the thrill for yourself, visit The Trilogy of Terror on Flamingo in the Grand Canyon shopping center.
