Albuquerque’s most chilling underground haunt is back — and creepier than ever. Haunted Scarecrow: American Horror Dungeon has returned for the 2025 Halloween season, bringing a fresh wave of screams, scares, and immersive terror right to the heart of Downtown.
Located beneath the 505 Central Food Hall, this haunted attraction is a must-visit for thrill-seekers, horror lovers, and anyone who wants to add a serious jolt to their October nights.
👁 What to Expect
This isn’t your average haunted house. The American Horror Dungeon immerses visitors in a dark, winding journey full of grotesque characters, spine-chilling surprises, and horror-movie-level visuals. Fog, strobe lights, twisted props, and talented scare actors combine to create a fully immersive fear-fest — all in a no-touch, safe, but scream-worthy environment.
This year's experience promises new sets, enhanced lighting and effects, and unexpected storylines — so even returning visitors will face new fears.
🧟 "It’s not just a haunt — it’s a psychological horror experience you walk through."
