Edmonton is home to many haunted houses that are guaranteed to fright and delight! In addition to decorating the home and finding the perfect costume, nothing says Halloween like a bone-chilling walk through a haunted house. Get ready to see the city of Edmonton at its spookiest at these Edmonton Halloween houses.
Deadmonton Haunted House
- Location: Deadmonton Haunted House, 9300 47 St NW, Edmonton, AB T6B 2P6
- Dates: Sept. 26 to Nov. 8 (Not all days)
Deadmonton Haunted House is by far the spookiest and downright frightening place of its kind in Edmonton. Attendees are treated to highly detailed and realistic props and costumed actors throughout. Many describe the experience as walking through multiple movie sets, as each year, the Deadmonton crew fully commits to over-the-top themes.
For 2025, the themes include "The House of Madame Tortura", "Danse Macabre", and "Biogen Organics: The Human Experiment." Danse Macabre is an outdoor experience that starts at dusk.
If the regular haunted house isn't scary enough for you, drop by the Lights Out! event on Nov. 7 and 8. Here, all the lights are turned off and each group is only given one source of light to help them get around.
In addition to the haunted house, you can find food and drinks at Camp Deadmonton. Whether you're looking for a cocktail to get you ready for the scares or want to settle down with some "bat wings" (chicken wings), there are plenty of options available.
Regular admission is between $43.99 and $48.99 online and $50.99 to $55.99 when you get your tickets at the door. Those who want to be at the front of the line for the scares can pay a little extra for a Speed Pass. A pass ranges from $63.99 to $75.99. If you can't wait to get spooked, you can get a discount on opening weekend ($29.99 to $36.99 regular admission).
DARK at Fort Edmonton Park
- Location: Fort Edmonton Park, 7000 143 Street NW, Edmonton, AB T6H 4P3
- Dates: Oct. 3 to Nov. 1 (Days vary, but primarily Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays)
Who would conceive of having a Halloween celebration and spook zone at a historic Canadian military post? The folks at Fort Edmonton Park culminated this brilliant idea in 2018 with the introduction of DARK, which features nerve-wracking immersive haunted houses. Each exhibit is designed as a linear experience from beginning to end with the goal of telling a spooky story that will appeal to a variety of audiences.
This year's four haunts are Necropolis (new!), Acid Trip, Cursery Rhymes, and Undead Mile. The haunts open at 7 p.m., but the fun can start even earlier with gates opening at 6:30 p.m. The spooky music from a live DJ will certainly set the mood! You can also enjoy local food trucks and drinks.
Tickets to attend DARK are $50, not including fees and taxes, or $80 for a fast pass. Hotel packages are also available with the Hotel Selkirk—visitors can enjoy perks like a continental breakfast, admission to DARK, and DARK toques.
Pumpkins After Dark
- Location: Borden Park, 7727 Borden Park Rd NW, Edmonton, AB T5B 4W8
- Dates: Sept. 26 to Oct. 31
Pumpkins After Dark promises family-friendly fun all October long! Located on the north side of Borden Park, attendees can walk through rows of more than 10,000 hand-carved Jack-o-lanterns. The paths come to life with special effects and music, and there are plenty of photo opportunities between the pumpkins and the special guests you'll find, like dinosaurs and Halloween characters. Visitors can also enjoy live pumpkin carving demonstrations while they snack on fall treats.
Tickets start at $17.46 for youth ages 4 to 17 and $21.59 for adults 18 and up, depending on the day you visit. Thriller Thursdays are the cheapest option. Family Packs include four tickets (two kids, two adults) for a savings of about $5, and VIP packages are available for $39.10 and are good for any time on your day. The packages also include admission to the Monster Maze and a free gift.
Kiwi's Haunted House
- Location: 31313 118 Ave, Acheson, AB T7X 6M6
- Dates: Oct. 3, 4, 12, 13, 17, 18, 24, 25, 31, Nov. 1
If you want a haunted house experience that's a little more kid-friendly, Kiwi's Haunted House is a great option. The growing house and surrounding trails are transformed into a haunting area. On the days the event is open, it's kid-friendly from 5:30–6:30 p.m. before the spook level starts to kick up for the adults until the event closes at 9:00 p.m. On Oct. 25, there's also a kids costume contest where children can try to win in categories like most creative, cutest, and scariest.
Tickets are $8 a person and priority passes are available for $15. If you buy a food bank donation on site, tickets are $4, and children under 8 can enter for free. The price of tickets will also include a small flashlight, and part of every ticket sold will be donated to the Parkland Food Bank.

Drop by West Edmonton Mall on Oct. 25 to enjoy the Fright Night event. From 6–10 p.m., zombies will be roaming the park as loud music and dim lights help transform Galaxyland into quite the spooky area. There will also be a live DJ and 360 photobooth. Is the promise of swag bags and unlimited rides enough to tempt you?
Early bird tickets are $45 online as long as they last. If you buy them at the door, tickets are $50.
SCREAM
