For those who live for fear, for those whose pulse quickens at every whisper in the dark, there’s nothing quite like stepping into a haunted house where every shadow moves and every corner hides a secret. At The Haunting Experience, the Haunted House is more than just one attraction—it’s the core of our legacy. If you’re in or near Cottage Grove, Minnesota, read on if you dare.
A Legacy of Terror: 39 Years in the Making
Since 1986, The Haunting Experience has been perfecting its haunted house. With decades of scares under our belts, we’ve learned how to use set design, lighting, sound, and actor‑driven terror to create atmosphere after atmosphere of dread.
We don’t just build rooms; we build fear. And after almost four decades, we know what makes people scream—and want to come back.

What You’ll Experience
Entering our haunted house means stepping into a world designed to unnerve. Here’s a taste of what lies within:
- Winding Corridors: Each hallway twists and turns, leading you through darkness, uncertainty, and lurking threats.
- Dark Rooms & Abandoned Spaces: Old hospital wings, laboratories of twisted experiments, rooms with unsettling smells and sounds.
- Diabolical Sights & Spine‑Chilling Sounds: Creature effects, shadows that move, distant whispers, sudden jolts—every sense is engaged.
It’s not a walk in the park. It’s not even for everyone. If your idea of fun includes being scared, if you enjoy tension, suspense, surprises—that’s where you’ll thrive. If not, maybe bring someone brave with you.
Combine the Haunt With More Horror
The Haunted House is powerful alone—but at The Haunting Experience, we make fear a full evening. Pair the house with:
- Haunted Hayride: Minnesota’s longest‑running haunted hayride takes you through haunted forests and eerie settings.
- “Massacre” for 2025: A newer, more immersive nightmare where our haunters may touch you, pull you deeper into the terror.
If you get a VIP ticket, you’ll get full access with reduced lines so you can experience the full suite—haunted house, hayride, and Massacre—all without being stuck waiting in the dark longer than necessary.
Tips to Survive (and Enjoy) the Haunted House
- Arrive early and expect to spend several hours moving between attractions.
- Wear comfortable shoes and clothes that you won’t mind if they get scratched by branches, brushed by actors trying to startle you, or damp from fog and mist.
- If you are easily startled, bring someone who can be your anchor—someone you trust to laugh and scream with.
- Keep an eye on ticket types: General, Fast Pass, VIP—each gives different benefits, especially around wait times and access.
