Although there may be other activities and events associated with these Halloween haunted houses, the main event is probably the terrifying, horrifying, spine-chilling haunted house(s). You'll find that typically they are not recommended for young children or people with weak hearts. Frankly, if you are squeamish or frighten easily, I probably don't recommend these at all. But if you like a good, gruesome scare, you have plenty of haunted attractions in the Phoenix area from which to choose.
The haunted attractions listed here are presented in date order.
