Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Beast Jump?
The Beast Jump is a Free-Fall Jump from the actual Roof of the Beast House. Participants must sign a waiver. Ages 12-17 must have a parental waiver signed on-site.
If it’s raining, are you still open?
Yes, we are open regardless of weather. The Beast House is within the actual plantation-home, so it is indoors.

If I get too scared, can I get a refund?
No. All Ticket Sales are final – onsite and online.
What are the VIP & Immediate Entry ticket options?
A “VIP” ticket allows you to save time by skipping the General Admission waiting line for entry into BOTH walk-thru Attractions – Beast House & CHAOS. An “Immediate Entry” Ticket allows entry to an exclusive line ensuring you’re the next group inside for both Attractions.
Will I get a ticket if I’m in the Ticket Booth line at closing time?
Yes. If you are in the ticket booth line at closing time, you WILL be able to purchase a ticket. The Attractions stay open until the final victim is slaughtered or escapes.
Is the Beast House really haunted?
Yes. Various organizations have confirmed paranormal activity relating to the Ketchum Family here. The History of this property is deep with written records dating back to the 1800’s.

How many Haunted Houses do you have on site?
We have 2 walk-thru Haunted Houses (Beast House & CHAOS) with 2 additional Attractions on site. There are NO age restriction for the Haunted Houses and NO waivers required. The 2 additional, optional Attractions require waivers to be signed.
Was there a Book written about The Beast House?
Multiple accurate, historical records exist referencing the original Beast House and its terrifying past. However, a popular, purely fictional book (released 1986) was NOT based on actual events of the property. The well-known Beast House name was used but the characters and content of the book is NOT historically accurate. See the History link or research the Isaac Ketchum property for yourself before your visit.
Can I only go through the Haunted Houses and NOT do the Money Back Challenge?
Yes. In fact, most visitors choose to experience only the Haunted Houses and Beast Jump (or pay to laugh and WATCH those who take the Challenge). The Challenge is separate from the Haunted Houses and is purely optional.
