Pennhurst Asylum Haunt Hunters |
Sping City, PA- Pennhurst Asylum has survived many obstacles and is still standing, the lastest change over the past 2 years has been the change of ownership at Pennhurst. What has always remained is the History and the passion to bring it to life with a staff that is committed to making Pennhurst Asylum Haunted Attraction one of the best in the Nation and as a must see destination during the Halloween Season.
Pennhurst Asylum might be considered a young Haunt in the world of Haunted Attractions as they enter season seven, but the energy that it has been drawing upon is anything but young. Built in 1908, Pennhurst was built as a school to help those on all ends of the Mental Illness spectrum. But what was intended as a solution, quickly turned into a place that was beyond overcrowded, understaffed and under funded. This led to years of horrific conditions that finally sealed the doors on all of the buildings on the 100 acre property in 1989. The acreage can lead you to underground tunnels that seem endless and to buildings that have captured the history within its walls and if you listen close enough, you may capture one of the thousands of stories that want to be told.
Pennhurst Asylum Haunted Attraction has been listening to the spirits that roam the grounds of Pennhurst and the Haunt fans who appreciate history and entertainment.
All of the props that are used are original pieces that were saved from the original school. This Haunt transforms part of grounds and brings you back to 1930.
There are Four different Attractions that are part of the Pennhurst Haunt and it is intended to be experienced in this order. The Asylum is where you will meet one of the iconic characters Dr. Webber. The Second phase is the Dungeon and third is the tunnel, which is the most intense part of the Haunt where Genvieve roams. The dungeon houses the more volatile patients as well as treatments and experiments gone wrong. It is the underbelly of the Asylum, dark, twisted and sinister. 2017 Opening Night is on September 22, followed by September 23 29, 30,October 1,6,7,8,12,13,14,15,19,20,21,22,26,27,28,29,and November 3,4 for a total of 22 Dates.
