No. All of Reign of Terror’s Attractions are inter-connected! There may be a wait once you enter the building, but this main queue line is part of the experience and provides entertainment while you approach the main entrance of the Haunt. Once you enter the Haunt, you will be inside until the very last room. Because all the Attractions are inter-connected, when you will finish walking through one attraction you will immediately enter the start of the next. It’s a continuous, one-way walk from start to finish. Typical walk through time is 25 – 30 minutes or more for the full experience.
Reign of Terror is not a maze. It is a long, one way stroll through all of our terrifying attractions and rooms. If any guest is confused while walking through, a staff member will help direct you through the attraction, or to leave early through an emergency exit, if necessary.
Keep in mind, if you exit the haunted house early, there are no refunds. You’re paying us to scare you. Clearly we’ve done our job!
Yes. We are located on one level, on the ground floor. For additional safety, please be aware, some rooms contain uneven surfaces.

The haunt is an intense experience. Character interactions, special effects, sound and lighting special effects are constantly while you are inside. All guests are required to continuously walk through each room at a reasonable pace without stopping. Stopping or moving too slowly will disrupt the operations of actors and effects and slow the flow of overall traffic causing groups of people to catch up to each other. In addition, it is very dark inside. If you distract yourself to focus on taking video or photos, you put yourself at risk of potential injury by tripping or otherwise losing track of what you are doing.
We have security cameras running throughout the maze. If you are observed taking photos or video, you will be pulled aside and subject to removal without refund.
Thank you for your cooperation with this important policy. Keep your phones and cameras securely inside your pocket while you are inside the haunt. You will have a better, more enjoyable experience without the distraction of attempting to film or photograph your visit inside.

I’ve been attending Reign of Terror since I was a kid and it was run as a home haunt. It’s MUCH bigger, now! Every year, it grows and gets switched up which keeps it fun and fresh. Would not only recommend a visit by locals, but it’s worth driving out to if you’re in the LA area!
