Legendary Haunted Attractions in Kansas City's West Bottoms Ring In the 50th Season


Season Opens Friday the 13th announcing timed ticketing to reduce time in lines

KANSAS CITY, Mo., Sept. 11, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- The season of scary fun is upon Kansas City, celebrating the 50th season of the legendary haunted attractions in the West Bottoms, including the 50-year original Edge of Hell and ever popular Beast and Macabre Cinema. The renowned trio is back to deliver frightening-fun and memorable experiences. Fittingly, Beast and Edge of Hell will open their doors on Friday the 13th, a date steeped in superstition and bad luck, making it the perfect night to kick off a season filled with screams and excitement. When the clock strikes 7:30 PM, the creatures within will be waiting to welcome those brave enough to enter. Macabre Cinema joins the terrifying fun two weeks later, opening on Friday, September 27.

Let the scaring commence on our 50th season, the best ever, we've added timed ticketing priming the lines to move faster.

This milestone season offers a mix of terror and laughter without the dread of long lines. These legendary haunts are introducing timed ticketing, allowing visitors to choose their entry time and arrive on time to spend less time in line since it is dedicated to the specific ticketed time queue. Haunt fans won't need to arrive early with timed ticketing, although some scare actors will still be outside to haunt those around.

The Edge of Hell is notorious for plunging visitors into the deepest depths of fear, focusing on phobias and leaving hearts racing. Meanwhile, Beast returns with its famed labyrinthine halls into an open-format design, where visitors choose their path and confront lurking creatures as they lose their way?and perhaps their nerve. Macabre Cinema brings the nightmares of the silver screen to life for those who love horror films, immersing guests in Hollywood horror sets and allowing them to meet iconic characters face-to-face.

Celebrating 50 years of scares, this season promises unforgettable moments for fright fans. From facing the devil himself at Edge of Hell to losing themselves in the castle and eerie bayou of Beast to becoming a part of a classic horror movie at Macabre Cinema, these attractions continue to set the bar for Halloween enthusiasts nationwide.

"Let the scaring commence with timed ticketing priming the lines to move faster," is the plan for this landmark year in the West Bottoms, said Amber Arnett-Bequeaith, also known as the Queen of Haunts. "This 50th season will be our best yet. With timed tickets, guests can immerse themselves in the experience with a predictable time to enter."

Tickets are on sale now for those daring enough to step into Kansas City's haunted history and join the celebration of 50 years of fear, fun, and fright.
