    Parking is easy. Get there EARLY.To enter the location you…read morehave to figure out a code to enter through the vending machine. Inside your greeted by one of the employees notifies you that there's no electronic device devices watches are allowed inside so they do provide lockers Afterwards they have you enter a different location and they offer you bathrooms prior to their escape room. We did the basement. This is the first time we've ever done an escape room so I had no idea what to escape. I don't wanna spoil too much BUT this was absolutely one of the best times I've ever had. The actors were so helpful and so funny. We didn't successfully pass, but we were very close!!!!!!. We had a group of two. When that room holds up to 10. Soooooo we did our best hahhaahaha . It's very interactive at some points, We had to crawl through spaces, walk through trap doors and we did get our hands dirty. We were Using flashlights to get around. It was SUPER interactive. I had a blast!!!! Will definitely come here again!!!!! Do wear comfy clothes. We were sweating!!!! Closed shoes recommended. And always pay attention to small details. Everything is a clueeee!!!!! And most importantly stay positive lol

    SO SO SO SO SO SO much fun!! The staff was very inviting and incredibly kind. We weren't able to…read morefinish the room (The Courtyard) but the live actor and the gamemaster who was watching us were super supportive of how far we got into the game. The room I chose was actually meant for a larger group, lol... but we made it fairly far! The live actor really added to the experience, I def recommend booking one with a live actor. The puzzles were reasonably difficult, imo. Try your hand at escaping Edward Tandy's home

    This Halloween home haunt is an atmospheric joy. The night we visited was perfect- a cool autumn…read morenight with clouds moving slowly across a mad eye moon. The house itself is perfectly nestled in what I imagined could be a quiet New England neighborhood. As you approach, you see the silhouettes of gravestones through fog and spooky green and purple lighting. Calliope music and a child's soft voice wafts towards you and you catch movement in the graveyard. Coming closer you see the "child" and you clearly hear her cautioning you. The front yard is used to great advantage as it curves around the house, with such attention to detail, from the skeletons on their eternal carousel ride, complete with the creepy ear worm worthy circus music, the ornaments on the tree, and an actual child (the haunter's daughter) surreally caps the display by meandering around the graves before heading to the tree swing to play in the cemetary. The front porch transports you to an episode out of the Twilight Zone. A cadaverous mother rocks her dead child to sleep under an antique lamp, near a broken TV while an old clock's hands spin out of time in a wash of blue light. There is also a sound activated knive-wielding masked nurse that is offering COVID tests. Which is easily the scariest part of this 2020 Halloween season.

    Tonight was a great turnout with several people loving the haunt. Around every corner you'll be…read morescared to move forward. Short but worth it, you can re-enter as much as you want, if of course you make it out like Jimmy

    The Queen Mary's Dark Harbor presented a special Valentine's event called Dark Masquerade February…read more13th & 14th. It was the first time they hosted a masquerade, and they killed it! Dark Masquerade has scare actors like their usual Dark Harbor season, along with some horror experiences and a dance party. It's open from 7PM-12AM, but be sure to arrive early so you can experience everything they offer. Upon entering the Queen Mary, you walk through the corridors and see glimpses of their horror props to set the mood. It leads to the dance floor (aka The Ringmaster's Dark Masquerade), which is massive and blasts killer dance tracks. You're given complimentary masquerade masks once inside, so no worries if you don't bring your own. Speaking of fashion, it was a mixture of casual and people going all out for the masquerade theme. If you fear you'll be overdressed, there's no such thing here! Some of the masquerade costumes/masks people had were pretty impressive. There were three horror experiences: (1) Gale's Requiem - descend six fathoms deep into the ship to see the experiments of a mad doctor, ending with Gale's performance as she sings for the dead. There's several tables surrounding Gale so feel free to take your time. There's also a photo-op on your way to the elevator. (2) The Search For Mary - you're given a single red glowstick and must make your way through dark corridors as Scary Mary haunts you. While the idea behind it has potential, it's literally pitch black and the glowsticks are too dim so it's a wee bit too hard to navigate. I walked into a wall because you can't see anything and the scare actors aren't helpful in directing any poor soul that gets stuck. My wife got claustrophobic and she absolutely hated a part where you get on a catwalk and they simulate it about to drop. (3) Sweethearts' Slaughterhouse - groups are ushed through a bloody restaurant and must work together to piece together the menu of a deranged chef and his killer kitchen staff. It was fun as it was interactive with others, so play nice and everyone will have a good time. The horror dummies/gore was pretty crazy to see (some of it brings to mind Hellraiser). The experience ends with a choice of leaving through a hallway or crawling through an oven (vent). Our group chose the oven, which is a bit unforgiving if you have weak knees or are wearing any fancy clothes. Fyi there's a slide at the end of the oven so be sure not to fall like a cartoon character (like I did). Overall the horror experiences were cool, but the main thing we loved was The Ringmaster's Dark Masquerade. They also have scare actors on the dance floor to help keep your blood pumping. If you're worried about being the only ones dancing, fear not - once it got going, it didn't stop until the end of the night! It's a 21+ event, so there's bars/alcohol throughout the ship (naturally it's expensive). For food it's really just snacks like churros, pretzels, popcorn, cupcakes, chips, etc. If you want some fresh air, there's a jazz stage outside for a more chill time. They also had hookah tables outside if you feel the need to do that. I hope Dark Masquerade becomes a regular off-season part of Dark Harbor because it's way too much fun to be a one-off! Even if you don't like horror, the masquerade dance party was worth the price of admission. Try not to wear heels though because the ship is tricky to walk through as is (not to mention the grated catwalks). Strobe lights and fog machines are used in parts of the experiences. There's a special merch store located inside if you want a goodie/memento for the night. Dark Masquerade returns for the next 2026 Friday the 13th weekend in March, so don't hesitate to get tickets if you can!

    It's been a while so an update is due…read more The highlights: -They've increased security for scare actors as well as DH patrons. *At first I was confused why I was being followed as the last one in mazes, then realized they were tracking things for everyone's safety. -They've increased first responder presence as well. I watched a few fire performances and the LBFD were checking in on their set times to be present. - The decor and makeup were done really well. I'd say a step above Knott's. - The hookah people were so so sweet! - Whatever fries they're selling with cotija, creama, meat, and spicy sauce get it. The price is on the high end, but my goodness they fill up two people! -The performances were awesome! I would try to plan on seeing the slider show, the "sideshow," and at least one of the fire performances on the major stage. -The bus from the park back to downtown was a refreshing thing to see. The misses: - Some things weren't explained or occupied which made things confusing. The boat near the whole bayou area where the voodoo queen reigned... You just walked through it and looked at stuff. There were no scare actors or anything. It was just an empty boat. - Some mazes required you to go up entire flights of stairs or dropped you off at them. It was weird. *certain mazes had accessible entrances but it didn't change everything to my knowledge. - Some mazes were not well-ventilated and really hot. - Having to leave on plywood boards oddly placed across the park's uneven ground made things rough for some. I had to help a man in a powered wheelchair who got stuck in the predicament. There's room for improvement, but it's also a decent haunt considering the talent.
