Overview

Queenstown is now the home of New Zealand's scariest Haunted House!
Fear Factory Queenstown offers you a real life horror experience.
Challenge yourself and your friends to walk the dark hallways of Queenstown's newest adrenalin-pumping experience.

You walk through our haunted hallways at your own speed, following a trail of red lights, but one thing you will learn very quickly as well as a maze we are a live action haunted house.

The tour is best enjoyed with friends, although a few brave souls have ventured in alone and lived to tell the tale!

Your fears are brought to life within the dark passageways - so if you choose to 'Chicken-Out' you will be added to Fear Factory Queenstown's growing Chicken List.

Fear factory Queenstown is geared towards adults, but children will survive with a parent or guardian (under 15's must always be accompanied by an adult).
The experience lasts approximately 30 minutes.

Are you brave enough? Fun and scares await you!
