BRIGHTON ASYLUM, the legendary haunted asylum complex featured on The Today Show, Cake Boss, Buzzfeed, Nickelodeon, ABC, NBC, FOX, HLN, and media outlets all over the country, shut down in 1952 due to staff and patient disappearances, as well as intolerable living conditions. Now, the asylum has re-opened and is accepting new patients! Brighton Asylum is a massive walk-through dark attraction filled with terrifying live actors, horror movie style scares, and Hollywood quality special effects. Check in here. You have nothing to lose but your mind!

3 Terrifying Haunted Attractions

BRIGHTON ASYLUM
Once home to the most disturbed minds, Brighton Asylum has lain in decay for nearly 60 years. Now, its doors have reopened, revealing the horrors that have festered in the shadows since 1952. Uncover the dark secrets within—if you dare. Do you have what it takes to survive?

Subculture
They were among Brighton Asylum’s most feared and dangerous. Escaping to the tunnels during a routine patient transfer, they adapted to the dark, preying on anyone who traveled through. They’ll try to trick you. They’ll try to recruit you. And if all else fails, They’ll simply take you! Will you escape? Or will these inhabitants overwhelm your mind and spirit?

The Bleeding Grounds
Venture into the forsaken staff quarters on the abandoned second floor of Brighton Asylum, sealed off since 1952. Here, the staff once worked, slept, and conducted their twisted experiments. Uncover the chilling truth behind why this once-bustling floor was condemned, earning the haunting name…The Bleeding Grounds. Will you escape with your sanity?

Add-on Attractions include The Hack Shack, Fear Pressure, & The Twitching Hour

Review This Haunt
  • Email Verified Spooky surprises

    A great way to end a Halloween season. This is the place to be for fun and scares. All the scenes were scream worthy. Loved the energy of the actors. They were in full swing scaring and giving us spooky surprises.Had a blast with them and my friends. We laughed and screamed our way out. Horrifying scenes are sure to give you nightmares. It was well detailed complete with props and animatronics. Many pop scares to keep you on your feet. Loved the ambiance. Will come again next year.

  • Ghostly

    3rd year in a row coming, every year is better and better. We went for the twitching hour. It was a great experience trying to find a real ghost. A paranormal expert was our guide who was immensely knowledgeable. They had the best ghost hunting equipment. It lasted for more than two hours. Only a brave can explore some of the haunted areas of the asylum. A real paranormal expedition. Do not expect scare actors to scare you. The investigation got us totally immersed and it was fun. A great place to be during the Halloween season!

  • 5 out of 5!!

    Screams, yells and running scared is what i love and that's what my family received last night. There were scenes quite innovative and totally out of the box. Amazingly decorated..you couldn’t even tell the real actors from the fake decorated figures.Great price for the fun..loved the imagination behind this!

  • Wowww

    Wowww… what a haunt!! We were screaming non-stop. Bleeding room had all the gore that could freak you out. It was also my favourite. The actors’ makeup and costumes was outstanding, especially those in the asylum wards. Escape room was challenging. We could not break out in time. Now I intend to do it in my next visit.

  • Email Verified Proffessional

    Pretty cool experience, no wonder it is the number one haunted experience. Quite professionally done and the actors were great. House was well designed, looked every bit a haunted asylum. The inmates were plenty. Looked gruesome and bloody. Props were cool, creatively used to scare us. The makeup artists did a wonderful job. Had a wonderful time.

  • Email Verified Great sets, props

    To be honest, I was a bit sceptical in the beginning. It took much prodding from wife and kids for me to change my mind. But it would have been a loss had I noted relented and visited Brighton. We took fast pass and that helped to skip the queue. My wife and kids screamed non-stop in the dark. Scares were well timed and executed to perfection. Great sets, props, scares and terrific actors. The asylum sets looked realistic. Actors’ makeup stood out. The elevator to the tunnel was a creepy ride. The tunnel was dark and narrow and the grotesque characters virtually freaked us out. Escape room was fun too. We all had a great time in the haunt. I will definitely visit again next year.

  • Dark and creepy

    It was my second visit to Brighton, and I loved it. My GF who was with me was totally petrified by the scares and props. The house was well put together, and it was pretty scary and hands-on. You can choose if you wish the scares to be interactive before you enter. The tunnel was dark and creepy, and featured some good jump scares that virtually startled me off my feet. I would not recommend young children.

  • Email Verified Terror everywhere

    AWESOME EXPERIENCE! The place was well designed with scary interiors and lots of nerve wracking terrors. The elevator simulation was impressive. The tunnel was dark and creepy. Bleeding room was the goriest and creepiest in the haunt. Escape rooms were fun. We teamed up with few other visitors to crack the code.

  • Full of intense scares

    Best haunted house I've been too! The scare actors scared the daylight out of me and my partner. She even screamed few times. The lower floor had more intense scares compared with the top floor. The actors’ creepy makeup and costumes virtually freaked me out. The clowns also scared us white. Overall, it was great fun and we had a great time in the Brighton. Recommend this place.
