A lot is going on this Halloween season but i bet you didn't know about the Haunted House Grand Tour, that Attraction Magazine will be sponsoring all over the country. This will be like a Halloween version of The Amazing Race reality show.
Over 70 haunted houses, hayrides and haunted trails from 24 states is taking place in this review. Reviewer John Kennedy will be the man to be traveling around seeing these attractions and giving you the latest news and interesting details on some of the counties most popular haunted houses.
On October 12, the Grand Tour stopped to visit a few of the
Denver Haunted Houses. John was able to get to four different haunted attractions. He stopped first at Primitive Fear and 13th Street Manor in Commerce City and finished the night up at the Legendary 13th Door Haunted House and Curse of Slaughterhouse Gulch in South Denver. Here is a sample of what John wrote in his blog after seeing the 13th Door and Slaughterhouse Gulch.
"My second stop of the night took me to visit The 13th Door and Curse of Slaughterhouse Gulch Haunted Houses. These two haunts are located in a former shopping center in Denver but are very different haunts. I visited 13th Door Haunted House first.
The haunt is themed as a hotel with a good story behind the haunt. The Barrington Hotel was owned by wealthy Denver Millionaire, John Barrington. On a cold October night in 1912, John Barrington, was throwing his annual All Hallows Eve party in the Hotel's Penthouse suite. Unfortunately, a disgruntled nephew with a gambling problem starts a fire killing everyone inside, except for one person who found the 13th door.
Unfortunately, I got there later in the evening and had to go through by myself, but I still enjoyed the haunt. The haunt has good scenes and energetic actors who were doing their best to scare. There is a good variety of scenes and has plenty of dark spaces.
The second haunt I visited was Curse of Slaughterhouse Gulch which is similar to 13th Door but edgier and more intense. As you can guess by the name, it is a slaughterhouse themed haunt. This attraction featured solid scenes and enthusiastic actors just like 13th Door."
When all is said and done, John will have traveled over 15,000 miles! Most of the tour will traveled via the trusty Haunted Attraction Hybrid with a couple airplane trips to get out west.
