The Black Hills' Favorite Haunted Attractions Are Back!

Please Note: To reduce wait times, all tickets are now sold in specific time blocks. Please verify your time block before making your purchase. All sales are final. Also, based on traffic in previous years, we expect to sell out most of the time blocks. For these two reasons, it is highly recommended to book your tickets online. (We do not charge any extra fees to book online.)

Frequently Asked Questions
Maybe yes, maybe no. Those who have been to the Haunting before know how long the lines can be. In our last season before we took our break, some folks stood in line for hours and still did not make it through all the attractions. Since then, we’ve realized that we need to do what most major attractions do — sell tickets in time blocks to help optimize lines and reduce wait times. 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.
House of Perpetual Panic (at the Keystone Schoolhouse Museum) will have a number of standby tickets available each evening at the door. Please come early, as we cannot guarantee they’ll last. Single-attraction tickets MAY also become available on a standby basis at the other attractions as lines allow.
tl;dr – Don’t risk it! Buy your ticket online.
Yes.
House of Perpetual Panic at the Keystone Schoolhouse Museum makes its way up and down through three stories.
Psycho Circus inside Rushmore Cave winds its way through several natural levels of the cave.
Miners: The Black Plague at Big Thunder Gold Mine has the fewest stairs, but there are stairs leading from the bottom of the old mill to the top. After that, the tour goes into the mine, which is a mostly-level walking path.
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.)
Great question! Even though we are no longer operating the haunted forest, it’s still a very good idea to wear sturdy, rubber-soled shoes. It’s also beneficial not to wear anything that can get tangled or snagged — but hey, if you want to make it easier for the monsters to get you, be our guest!
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.
A portion of every dollar raised goes toward maintaining the Keystone Victorian Schoolhouse which turns 123 this year. Built in 1899, it served as Keystone’s full-time school until 1988. Now used as a museum, it houses early day mining tools, historic pictures and photo collections, rock and mineral collections, and historic displays including Carrie Ingalls memorabilia. (Read more here.) We also provide support to other local civic organizations.
