From immersive horror mazes to haunted escape rooms, Halloween scene is alive with frights. These are the haunted houses open this season for those who dare to enter.
Halloween in Dubai has taken on a life of its own: louder, darker, and far more elaborate each year. Haunted houses now rival theme parks, escape rooms turn into full-blown horror sets, and even the city’s calmest corners seem to be humming with a ghostly thrill. This season brings a lineup of scares designed to push your pulse to the edge. Here are the haunted attractions across the country open now, ready to test just how brave you really are.
Hysteria
Ready to scream? Hysteria is one of Dubai's scariest haunted attractions - a high-intensity maze packed with twisted rooms, strobe lights, and terrifying actors around every corner. Not for the faint of heart.
Insidious Escape Room
Based on the hit horror franchise, this escape room drops you into a haunted house full of puzzles and paranormal surprises. Perfect for horror movie lovers who want to live the nightmare for real.
The Haunted Hotel
Check in if you dare. IMG’s Haunted Hotel is a shifting maze filled with creepy corridors and ghoulish guests. It’s intense, unpredictable, and just scary enough to make you laugh and scream at the same time.
Deep Dark
This one’s not for amateurs. Deep Dark offers full-contact horror escape rooms where live actors chase you with knives (yes, really - fake ones). It’s a brutal, brilliant test of nerve and teamwork.
Haunted Activity
New on the scene and already gaining fans, Haunted Activity offers Ouija-themed séances and slasher-inspired rooms for groups who want a full hour of immersive terror. Bonus: more blood-soaked themes are coming soon.
Horror Cinema
Watch a horror movie… and then watch it come to life. Just when you think you’re safe in your seat, masked actors leap from the shadows to turn film night into fright night. Genuinely unexpected fun.
Dark Room
You’re in a little girl’s abandoned playroom. The lights are out. The doll is staring at you. Dark Room is one of Dubai’s most unsettling escape games - quiet, psychological, and very, very dark.
The Green Planet’s Haunted Rainforest
The rainforest gets spooky this October. Creepy crawlies, eerie night walks, and Halloween-themed jungle camping make this one a wild (but family-friendly) alternative to blood and guts.
Fright Nights 8: Phantasmagoria
This year’s mega Halloween event features cursed movie sets, scare zones, haunted mazes, and horror dance shows. It’s big, loud, theatrical - and perfect for adults and brave teens.
Spooktober
Not into full-blown horror? Head to Spooktober for character parades, themed rides, and gentle jump-scares. Great for families and anyone who prefers Scooby-Doo over scream queens.
