Celebrate Halloween all month long by visiting one of the East Metro’s haunted attractions. (Visit each website for up-to-date information.)
Inver Grove Height’s Nowhere Haunted House employs scare actors and detailed sets, waiting for you to be frightened like never before. Actors are not allowed to have physical contact with attendees, and the recommended age for the haunted attractions is 12 and older with parental judgment. For a more startling evening, visit during the 18-plus nights, where actors will engage with attendees more intensely. 5300 S. Robert Trail #300, Inver Grove Heights; 651.340.8651; nowherehauntedhouse.com
Get your heart pounding at The Haunting Experience on Highway 61 located in neighboring Cottage Grove. Home to the longest-running hayride in Minnesota, this haunted house is filled with monsters and scare actors that lurk along the tractor trails, the haunted forest and more. Visit during the daylight during select days for family fun, including free hayrides, pet goats, pumpkin painting and more. And don’t miss Fall Fun Fest, slated for 11 a.m.–3 p.m. October 12–13, 19–20 and 26–27, which includes over 30 rooms of frights. 10900 E.
