Frequently Asked Questions

Due to overwhelming demand, we are selling tickets in time blocks to help optimize lines and reduce wait times. It worked very well last year, and we expect it will again this year. Only a certain number of tickets will be sold in each time block. As such, we are encouraging everyone to buy their tickets online (with no additional service charges) to guarantee they get a ticket.

Single-attraction tickets may be available at Nightmares on Third Street at the Keystone Schoolhouse Museum on a standby basis.

tl;dr – Don’t risk it! Buy your ticket online.

Great question! You will be wandering through a cave with uneven floors, an old mill with steep stairs, a gold mine with low, rocky ceilings, a dark forest and a 124-year-old schoolhouse. At minimum, it is a very good idea to wear sturdy, rubber-soled shoes. It’s also beneficial not to wear anything that can get easily tangled or snagged — but hey, if you want to make it easier for the monsters to get you, be our guest!

Yes.

The Void inside Rushmore Cave winds its way through several natural levels of the cave.

Old West Horror: Gruesome Legends of Keystone at Big Thunder Gold Mine & Forest has stairs leading from the bottom of the old mill to the top, as well as uneven forest paths.

Nightmares on Third Street at the Keystone Schoolhouse Museum makes its way up and down through three stories.

We have adopted dynamic pricing to help balance demand for the most popular nights with the less-busy ones.

Hey, you pay for your kids’ therapy bills, not us. We don’t set a minimum age because you know best what your kids can and cannot handle. That said, our content can be very gruesome, so we recommend strong parental discretion for ages 12 and under.

Wellll… Actually, if you read the terms and conditions very carefully, you will note that you are agreeing not to touch the actors — not the other way around. We will keep any touching appropriate (no chests, groins, butts, etc.), but yes, you may get touched at some point in your tour. (If inappropriate touching should ever occur, we kindly ask that you notify a staff member, security officer or law enforcement right away so we can address the issue.)

If you are pregnant, have a history of heart problems or other medical condition which may be aggravated by high levels of fog, fear, climbing stairs, crawling, uneven ground, or sudden startles, The Haunting of Keystone may not be for you. However, if you live on adrenaline and/or enjoy a good scare, please come visit us!

No, there is not. Please ensure you have adequate transportation.

Yes! This year, a portion of every dollar raised will go toward maintaining the fence around the Keystone Cemetery.

Great! Shoot us an email at admin@hauntingofkeystone.com and we’ll work to find a way to accommodate your group.
