Halloween in Las Vegas 2026

1. Halloween Escape Room Fright Experience at Number One Escape Room

The Halloween season runs September 6 through November 1, 2026, every day, day or night, and the entire venue gets spookier for the season. The Fright Experience is three hours and up to five rooms, including Witch House, The Cabin, The Shed, CHAINED – Seven Deadly Sins, Voodoo Lounge, and Red Riding Hood.

Choose your scare level at booking: Level 1 spooky, Level 2 scary, or Level 3 extra scary. Add live actors for $200. Pricing starts at $119 per person, $149 on Fridays and Saturdays. Costumes are encouraged, and you can ask for a free Seven Deadly Sins trick-or-treat bag while supplies last.

It’s the safe Halloween scare: your group is only your friends and family, never strangers, and every room gives you a full 60 minutes of real play time.

2. Don’t Look Under the Bed at Third Gate Escape

The most popular haunted escape room in Las Vegas, and the only 70-minute escape room in the city. A haunted maze pushes you through in about 15 minutes. Don’t Look Under the Bed keeps you inside a real haunted house for 70 minutes, room to room. You don’t watch the movie. You become it.

Every game includes the Butler as a live actor, and you can add a second. Nobody touches you. They don’t have to. For the scariest version, book “double scares” (highest scare level plus the added actor) at 11 PM, the most-requested slot of the season. Private games hold up to 16 players.

Don’t Look Under the Bed holds a 5.0 Google rating with 1,800+ reviews, won Best Horror 2024 from ESCAPETHEROOMers, and is nominated for Best Escape Room in the Las Vegas Review-Journal’s Best of Las Vegas 2026.

Halloween is your last chance to play before Krampus and the Wicked Elves takes over November 1.

Location: 6820 W. Sahara Ave., Ste. 8, Las Vegas, NV 89146

Location: 2121 Industrial Rd., Las Vegas, NV 89102

6. Asylum & Hotel Fear at Meadows Mall

The long-running Vegas haunted house. Both attractions return for their 28th season starting Friday, October 2, with two walkthroughs linked by a storyline about two connected families. One ticket covers both, and the on-site box office is cash only.

Holiday Escape Room Coming November 1: Krampus and the Wicked Elves

When Halloween ends, the wicked little elves take over. From November 1 through January 30, Krampus and the Wicked Elves moves into Third Gate Escape, with new games throughout the entire building. Every naughty elf has to end up somewhere, and they end up at Krampus’s house, deep in hell, making a destructive mess of everything. Your team has to survive them and get out. And while you’re there, get your name off the naughty list and put your worst enemy’s name on it instead. It’s the most high-tech escape room experience Las Vegas has ever seen.
