The Haunted Hotel at Lakeside

The Haunted Hotel at Lakeside

CHECK IN… IF YOU DARE.

October 8 – November 1, 2026
LeFrak Center at Lakeside • Prospect Park

There was a time when this hotel welcomed guests.

Those days are over.

This fall, step inside The Haunted Hotel at Lakeside—an approximately 7,680-square-foot immersive haunted attraction where a once-operational hotel has been completely overtaken by zombies.

Make your way through its abandoned rooms, darkened corridors, employee areas, and forgotten corners while discovering what happened to the hotel…

and what might still be inside.

TICKETS

  • Tuesday–Sunday: $35 per person
  • MONDAY SPECIAL: $20 per person

WELCOME TO THE HOTEL

Your stay begins at check-in.

From there, guests will make their way through a sprawling series of interconnected hotel environments brought to life through performers, sound, lighting, scenic environments, props, atmospheric effects, hidden access points, and unexpected scares.

Your journey may take you through the:

  • Hotel Lobby
  • Front Desk
  • Guest Room Corridors
  • Restaurant
  • Kitchen
  • Security Area
  • Mess Hall
  • Blackout Hall
  • Public Restrooms
  • Bellhop Area
  • Gift Shop
  • Honeymoon Suite
  • Mail Room
  • Trash Room
  • Laundry Room
  • Staff Lockers
  • Hotel Service Areas
  • Boiler Room
  • Back-of-House Corridors

and darkened passageways throughout the hotel.

But these aren’t necessarily the same hotel employees and guests you would have wanted to meet before everything went wrong.

25 MINUTES. ONE WAY OUT.

The Haunted Hotel is designed as an approximately 25-minute continuous immersive experience from check-in to check-out.

Guests enter in controlled groups of up to approximately 6 people, allowing scares and experiences to unfold throughout the hotel without overcrowding the attraction.

Multiple groups may be inside different areas of the hotel at the same time—but you’ll never quite know who, or what, is waiting in the room ahead.

Recommended for ages 13+.

The Haunted Hotel is open to guests of all ages, but parents and guardians should use their discretion due to darkness, scary themes, performers, special effects, loud sounds, and frightening environments.

HOW HAUNTED HOTEL RESERVATIONS WORK

CHOOSE A 30-MINUTE ARRIVAL WINDOW

When purchasing your Haunted Hotel ticket online, you’ll select an available 30-minute reservation window.

For example:

7:00 PM–7:30 PM

This is your arrival window, not an exact Haunted Hotel entrance time.

Your ticket guarantees admission during your selected window.

Guests with reservations for the same 30-minute window will enter the Haunted Hotel on a:

FIRST-COME, FIRST-SERVED BASIS within that window.

Because groups enter the attraction approximately every five minutes, guests will be continuously moved from the queue into the hotel throughout each reservation period.

We recommend arriving toward the beginning of your selected window.

WALK-UPS ARE WELCOME

Didn’t make an advance reservation?

You can still try your luck.

Walk-up guests are welcome based on availability.

Guests with advance reservations receive priority during their scheduled arrival windows. Walk-up guests will be placed into available openings as capacity allows.

On busy nights and during popular evening hours, specific windows may sell out.

If there’s a particular time you want to visit, we strongly recommend reserving in advance.
