The live experience
What reaches the room
Nestled in the heart of Salt Lake City, Nightmare on 13th is a staple of Utah's Halloween season. Operating from a single 36,000 sq ft facility at 300 W 1300 S, this venue houses both Nightmare Haunted House and the Institute of Terror attraction, offering a spine-tingling experience from September through November each year. Since opening in 1990 as The Institute of Terror and rebranding to Nightmare on 13th around 2001, the attraction has grown into a recognized name in American haunted entertainment, earning mentions from Travel Channel and USA Today as one of the country’s top haunted houses.
