Chris Brown's Secret ScareHouse visit

Chris Brown, Tyga, and two F.A.M.E. Tour Buses made a secret trip to The ScareHouse after last night's concert at The Consol Energy Center!  

Chris had a great time - dancing in Delirium 3-D, running from our Pittsburgh Zombies, and posing for a photo with ScareHouse staff.

Check out The ScareHouse Fanpage on Facebook for more photos from last night's secret visit. 

And remember, tonight is the FINAL NIGHT of our ordinary season.  This is your last chance to experience one of America's Best Haunted Houses before next week's "Turn Out The Lights" event.  

Tickets are available now at www.scarehouse.com

ScareHouse Reviews

The ScareHouse continues to receive rave reviews and national headlines!

USA TODAY called us "One of the Scariest Haunted Houses in America" - Click here to read their interview with Creative Director Scott Simmons

From Yahoo! News: "The ScareHouse is one of Pittsburgh's creepiest and ultimate mind blowing events when it comes to all things Halloween and events filled with the adrenaline pumping, heebie-jeebie factor"

KDKA: "The Scarehouse definitely lives up to its name. Scarehouse is ranked amongst the top of the pack for haunted houses nationally." 

User reviews on Yelp:

Nichole M: "Scarehouse is one of the best in the COUNTRY not just in this city. It's very clear that they spend a great deal of time in planning the interior decor, the costumes, and the acting. I honestly almost peed a little more than once"

Jessica M: "I love the Scarehouse! I had no idea what to expect going in, but I had heard friends speak highly of it. I was not disappointed!"

And great reviews from fans on our Facebook page: 

Melanie Medvitz:  "Awesome! I have never seen my boyfriend jump as many times as he did tonight. Great job. See you next year!"

Jeremy Eiben: "You people scared the crap out of me!"

A ScareHouse Review from a Legendary Haunter

With more than 30 years haunting experience designing over 100 original and innovative Haunted Attractions through his company, Hauntrepreneurs®, Leonard Pickel has created frightening attractions for major venues worldwide including Madison Square Garden, Universal Studios Florida, Six Flags theme parks, and Kandy Halloween at the Playboy Mansion as well as Haunted Attractions in foreign countries.

Leonard visited The ScareHouse for the first time last weekend and posted an enthusiastic review!

The attraction has 3 sections; The Forsaken was first. Creepy, high quality sets make for a twisting claustrophobic trip through a long forgotten carnival. Delirium 3D was a high energy, florescent blacklite LSD trip through a rave club of fright, complete with a live DJ pumping out dance tunes! And finally, Pittsburgh Zombies is an apocalyptic journey of survival through a zombie infested city. Zombies were coming from every direction and avoiding them came impossible as we hurried to the safety of the real Pittsburgh streets.

Each of the haunts were filled with great actors wearing great costumes in great sets and great haunt design. Several places in the experience you can see into other parts of the path giving you a teaser of what is to come, and making the enormous attraction seem even bigger.

Everyone in our party gave The Scarehouse a thumbs up!

Leonard Pickel shares his expertise offering seminars throughout the year at haunt convention across the country and as event Coordinator for HAuNTcon.com. Check out Leonard’s web site at www.leonardpickel.com, or follow him on Twitter @leonardpickel and Facebook.com/leonardpickel

A Zombie Marriage Proposal

Horror fan Troy Daniels first emailed The ScareHouse a few weeks ago with a very unusual request...

"I really want to propose to my girlfriend this Halloween season at The ScareHouse."

"My girlfriend, Randi, is by far the biggest horror movie fan I have ever met (and) Zombies are her favorite.  When I began to search for a way to incorporate Zombies into my proposal, I found that the ScareHouse opened a new zombie attraction and it just seemed meant to be. It’s a weird request to do a proposal in a haunted house, but I really know it would be spot on with one of her favorite things and right up her alley, and a memory we could have forever."

When Randi visited The ScareHouse last night with a girlfriend, she had no idea that Troy was waiting in the darkness of Pittsburgh Zombies. No idea that our team had turned him into a ghoulish zombie. And certainly no idea that he planned to propose to her inside a haunted house!

WTAE Channel 4 Action News was on the scene when Troy popped the question. Click here to check out the video of her shocked reaction...and enthusiastic "yes!"

Congratulations to Randi and Troy!
