The Old West comes back from the dead with Bonnie Screams Haunted Ghost Town.
Located just outside of Las Vegas, on the 144-acre Bonnie Springs Ranch, the ghost town spans a quarter mile of a creepy looking restored haunted ghost town.
Along the way you’ll encounter a few monsters and ghouls thanks to the creative team of Hysteria City. It’s old west meets new special effects with custom-built animatronic props, high-tech lighting effects, and digital sound that nearly convinces you it’s for real.
Recommended for ages 13 and over (and parental discretion is always advised), some of the featured attractions include:
- A zombie filled train ride through an Indian burial ground and a bandit hideout
- Miners Haunted Dance Hall where ghosts celebrate the Halloween season
- Haunted Shootin’ Gallery for some eerie target practice
- Ominous Trail of Terror & Doom with three terrifying haunted tours
- and lots more sinister town locations. . . and residents
There’s also shopping, food, live entertainment and celebrity appearances scheduled.
Bonnie Screams Haunted Ghost Town will be open October. 10-12th, 17-19th, 21-31st, and November 1st-2nd (Day Of The Dead). Tickets sales start at 6 pm, and the attractions open at 7 pm. Tickets are $20 general admission, or $15 for the ghost town only. Tickets can be purchased on site, or in advance online.
A portion of the proceeds benefit local youth-focused non-profits including Boys and Girls Club, Big Brothers Big Sisters and Olive Crest. Bonnie Screams Haunted Ghost Town is located at Red Rock Canyon in Las Vegas.
