Haunted Houses in Austin, Texas

Viktoria Carrella
They have a saying that, "everything's bigger in Texas," and apparently, the saying holds true for haunted houses. Austin is not only home of the Texas Longhorns, but they also have one of America's best Haunted Attractions for 2009. With haunted houses like these, it makes wonder if cowboy boots are good for running for your life?

Why Wait for Hell for Torment, When You Can Have It Right Here?

Austin's House of Torment, is a nationally-renown haunted attraction, and was once featured on the Travel Channel. With its box-office quality set design, special effects, lighting and sound, not to mention a stunt team, (I told you everything's bigger in Texas) so it's no wonder that House of Torment keeps tormenting repeat visitors year after year.

The House of Torment opens Sept. 17th, and run through November 14th, making it one of the longest running Haunted Attractions around. It's open Thursday through Saturday. Because of the immense popularity, when you purchase your tickets, you are given a show time, just like a movie.

The website is professionally done, and even gives you a taste of what will be going bump in the night when you arrive to be scared out of your wits. Not to mention a clip from their feature on the Travel channel. Admission for the House of Torment is $14.99-tax, but you can see both The House of Torment, and our second feature in Austin, Illusion Manor for $19.99+tax. The House of Torment is a must see for any haunted attraction enthusiasts, or person who's looking for a good scare. A word of advice, bring an extra pair of underwear.

For more info, visit the website of The House of Torment.

No Manners Needed in Illusion Manor

Right in the same complex, you can be scared senseless again, without even getting in your car. From the same people who brought you the House of Torment, comes the new attraction, Illusion Manor. Illusion Manor, just like its sister attraction, was featured on the Travel Channel also. This new attraction features state-of-the-art effects including something they call an, "anti-gravity," room. This is another incredible attraction where it seems that its creators have peered into the nightmares of its guests.

Once again, top notch acting, Hollywood quality special effects, and the sheer inspiration to scare the living daylights out of anyone who comes there, is what makes this place really special.

The schedule and pricing are exactly the same for Illusion manor, which makes the combo package even greater a deal.

For more info, visit the website of the Illusion Manor.
