Haunted Basement

Hello! Did you miss us? 

We missed you. It is so nice to have visitors. The Rescuer has been gone so long on their travels, finding lost souls in need of rehabilitation and safety. But they don’t do it for themselves. They do it for the greater good, and would love to introduce you to them. Please, come in. 

There is always room in the menagerie…

HAUNTED BASEMENT RETURNS with Rescuer’s Menagerie, an intimate mini haunt. It has been a long and dark time since last you saw the Haunted Basement. We have been waiting in the shadows until finally we can crawl out of the dim, ghastly, dreadful, place we call home. We have haunted a few basements in the past and this time we are welcomed by a fellow basement dweller. We have taken over two rooms at Bumbling Fools Meadery. Your ticket will grant you access to both rooms and after we’ve rattled your bones you are invited to enjoy some clever mead made by Bumbling Fools.

  • Tickets will be $15 online and $20 at the door

  • Event is 18+

  • This is a touch haunt, the actors may touch you.

  • Closed-toe shoes are required

  • There will be strobe effects, louds sounds, and sirens.

  • The elevator to the space is currently broken.

If you have accessibility or health concerns please email Info@HauntedBasement.org


Oct 17th – Nov 2nd on Thurs-Sat each week

We highly recommend buying your ticket ahead of time

We look forward to the company of those that dare return

Art of Fear

Since 2005 we have been terrifying the Twin Cities with absurdist psychological horror.  Before inching downstairs, you must sign a waiver and present valid ID. Prepare yourself for immersive theater, created by a community of avant-garde artists and horrible creeps who will…

What to Expect

The Haunted Basement is a basement, it's deliciously moist. Expect strong smells, physical contact, and projectile liquids. You may get very messy, you may have to crawl, and you may find yourself in a confined space with something horrible.

What to Wear

The Haunted Basement is a great place to take a date. However, it is a bad idea to show up in nice clothes. They will get dirty. Make sure your shoes are closed toed. Don't wear heels.

What to Bring

Make sure you bring a valid ID. Leave your bags at home, if you don't need it, don't bring it. Also bring a good attitude, prepare to scream, laugh, and for your skin to crawl.
