Encounter grim visions dredged from the past and creatures so terrifying they defy description at Baltimore’s most terrifying and unique haunted attraction. The Nevermore Haunt:

I with my two cousins went to the 301 Devil’s Playground. The Barn of Torture was freakingly scary.

What is happening in the Manor? We will give you a sneak preview.... Mabel’s disappearance after staring into her husband’s empty coffin left the manor trembling with unanswered questions. The butcher’s body—gone without trace—haunts the corridors like an unburied secret.
