ABOUT THE EXPERIENCE
Dark Hour Haunted House is DFW's top-rated haunted house event. Dark Hour’s state of the art lighting and audio systems, in-house production facility, and talented staff of artists and technicians allow us to offer new immersive experiences for each unique production.
The event will take place at Dark Hour, located at 701 Taylor Dr, Plano, TX 75074, off Plano Parkway and Highway 75, near the George Bush turnpike. Click here for detailed directions.
Dark Hour Haunted House is held indoors in an air-conditioned facility. On busy nights some of our wait line is outside, but the vast majority of our line is also indoors. Since Dark Hour takes place indoors, we are open rain or shine.
The haunted attraction usually takes 20-30 minutes to walk through. There is a small wait in a themed queue as well. Overall, plan to spend 60-90 minutes at Dark Hour.
VIP experiences take approximately 1hr 30mins. This includes 30 minutes in a private VIP room with scare stations, and two trips through the attraction all while skipping the line.
