A Preview of NYC's First Year-Round Haunted Attraction




Times Scare Haunted House
669 Eighth Avenue
New York, NY

The official grand opening of Times Scare is this Thursday, but "S" and I were able to catch a preview. Owner, Jason Egan gave us a tour of the venue, which will be an ever-growing, ever-changing Entertainment Mecca for Horror Fans.

Naturally, our first stop was the Michael Myers-themed Haunted House. They are still working some things out, but it is wildly fun and inventive. (A full review of the Times Scare Haunted House will be posted after the Official Opening.) 

Our journey continued with a drink tasting in a morgue-themed bar and lounge called The Kill Room where we sampled four of the bar's signature cocktails. Wow. The signature selections have appropriately creepy names, but they're also, sophisticated, delicious, and deceptively strong. There are plans to add an equally inventive tapas menu sometime in the future.  

A second bar called the Parlour of the Paranormal will open next week. 

The final stop on our tour was the theater for the evening's performance of Magic Show, starring 'Anti-Conjurer' Dan Sperry. This is by far the best 'magic show' I've ever seen. Dan Sperry's performance is a shocking combination of dark humor, and twisted illusions. "S" found one moment so shocking she ended up wearing her drink. 

New York now has a darkly extravagant, year-round valentine to Halloween. Anyone who loves Halloween, horror, or Haunted Houses must visit Time Scare.
