Distinct Ticketed Nights
More Than October
The core season runs on select nights from September 25 through November 1, with the first check-in at 6:45 PM, when all three haunts run on one price. Around it sit three separate events, each on its own limited dates and its own ticket, all announced on the ticket page. To see where we fit among the wider slate of Halloween events across Phoenix and Mesa, we keep a running valley-wide guide.
One Glowstick. One Way Out.
Blackout Night
The season-end encore runs the haunt in near-total darkness. Each group gets a single glowstick as its only light, and there is one way out. One night only, at the close of the season.

The Horror Comes Back In December
A Nightscare Before Christmas
The scares do not end on November 1. A separate December holiday haunt returns with limited operating dates, so your fix carries into the winter with its own night of fear.

Why Repeat Visitors Come Back
One Night, Then It Is Gone
Blackout Night is a one-night encore at the close of the season, run in near-total darkness with a single glowstick per group. Miss the date and it does not come back until next year.
A Second Season Of Fear
A Nightscare Before Christmas brings the haunt back in December on limited operating dates. It is off-season horror most Valley haunts do not run, and a fresh reason to return after Halloween.
Every Event Is Its Own Ticket
Each of these nights carries its own ticket, announced on the ticket page as the date is set. Every announcement is a fresh way back through the gates for anyone who already made it out of the October run.
They Came Back For More
My wife and I went here for the 1st time. We have gone to 13th floor and fear farm. Scarizona by far is the best ! The others felt like a waste of money. We highly recommend coming here

Scarizona is such a hidden gem of a haunt and everyone needs to know about it! My husband and I went there for the first time last night and this place blows everyone out of the water! The actors are phenomenal at doing their job, to be scary! The staff was all great and very informative. We can not say enough about this place and can not wait to come back year after year. One of the best parts about this place, they send you through the mazes with just your group! If I could give Scarizona 100 stars, I would. Keep being scary and Happy Halloween!!

Such a great experience! Staff is friendly and fun. Perfect amount of scary for kids 8/9 up. Perfect for teenagers to go with friends, bday party, date nights.

This is the BEST Haunted Attraction, that I've been to here in Arizona! The houses were very well put together and provided lots of jump scares, and the actors did an outstanding job at providing entertainment and scares, they actually seemed to enjoy their job, unlike other haunted attractions in Arizona where the actors just go through the motion and have no enthusiasm. My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed Scarizona Scaregrounds and will be back next year. AWESOME JOB Scarizona!

Three haunted houses, each one different from the others. The characters all different and the scare level was just right. I come every year with my friends.

SO MUCH FUN!!!!! They did an amazing job and actually put effort into it. Best haunted houses in AZ!!!!! Beats all the others by farrr. Get there early and there's no lines too. Didn't want it to end!!! I'm hard to scare, and i literally screamed continously in every haunt. WELL DONE SCARIZONA!!!! WILL BE BACK NEXT YEAR!!!!! 10 STARS

Best haunted house I’ve been to in years. The fast pass is definitely worth it. Will be going back if I’m in Arizona again during October. Outstanding job!
TTravis KoldenhovenGoogle - Recent
Soooo much fun. So worth the money. So glad we went. Three super fun attractions and we were screaming our heads off. Wish it was a bit more lively outside the haunted houses. But it was opening night so maybe October is more lively!

The ICU attraction this season was great
FFrederic PolahaGoogle - Recent
1st my teens had a great time and enjoyed the scare but I wanted to share how amazing the staff was. My wife is a newly amputee and some of the houses had some challenging spots for her to walk. All the staff were so quick to warn her when she needed to watch her step. One awesome guy walked in front of her and made sure she knew what to expect with the floor. I can't thank you all enough.

It was a fun bit of scares and Halloween during g Christmas time. The dark scare is very, VERY dark. And the medical one has real medical gear and some great costumes. They even send cast out into the parking lot to scare people sitting in their cars, which really set the mood! After a lackluster Halloween haunted house experience, this was a welcome step up. P.s. where you exit has a "Do Not Enter" sign posted that you just ignore.

This is the absolute BEST set of houses in the Valley! The house design was impeccable, the actors were really awesome and extremely professional. If you like a good, genuine scare, you have to come here. It’s worth every minute and dollar you’d spend. 10/10 would recommend!
DDennis GableLocal Guide, GoogleNov to Dec 2025 -
The halloween haunt is 🔥. The Christmas haunt is 🔥. Don't sleep on scarizona! They are miles ahead of fear farm!!
JJeremy JohnsonGoogleNov to Dec 2025 -
Scarizona Scaregrounds did not disappoint! Took a large group of friends and had a great time! Entrance, parking, and ticketing was effective, quick, and painless. Had a great open space with concessions available to mingle with friends while also getting snuck up on my actors! Double face Olaf was the absolute best! The 3 haunted houses were great scares, especially the new ICU - The set up was creepy and actors were really into their roles. Special shoutout to the creepy doll room too! Overall, can’t wait for next year! Thanks Scarizona!
JJon MobleyGoogleOct to Nov 2025 -
Mayhem in the madness was by far the best haunted house I’ve ever been to. 10/10. There were scares around every corner. They gave us a story to carry throughout. It was fantastic. Will be back next year. Loved the other haunts as well. Very detailed. Scare actors were on point. Especially for a black out event.
CCarlysleGoogleOct to Nov 2025 -
This haunted house is far superior to Fear Farm! They have a great selection of attractions at reasonable prices, and the actors perform exceptionally well. The best part is the pacing of the crowd, which allows the actors to rest between performances. The way we entered the house really enhanced our overall experience. Thank you!
SSamantha ReavesGoogleOct to Nov 2025 -
This haunted house is way best then fear farm! They have a good selection and good prices and the actors do a good job. The best thing is the pace the crowd so it gives the actors time to reset. Pacing the entry of us entering really let us get the full experience. Thank you!
DDawn Reaves ReavesGoogleOct to Nov 2025 -
This was so much fun and scary! 3 different houses all creepy and scary in a different way. We went with a big group and screamed the whole time. The actors were awesome, the sets were creepy, and we had such a great night. Definitely recommend if you love a good scare.
MMichael JustLocal Guide, GoogleOct to Nov 2025 -
First time coming here had a blast want to go back enjoyed ourselves! It was so much fun 10/10 would definitely go again.

Had a great time with my family. The characters were interactive. There are two haunted houses but worth the time.
RRegina J.Los Angeles, CA, Yelp -
To my haunted house-loving friends, this was the coolest, most impressive haunted house experience I've ever enjoyed! They really went above and beyond, the actors were great! The setups impressive, the haunts wandering through the lines were so fun.
EElicia N.Scottsdale, AZ, Yelp -
Scarier than Fear Farm! Will attend every year for sure! I have a few people in mind for dark room challenge!!!! So much fun!!!

Seriously everything there is creepy spooky scary and freaking intense - I saw a grown man crying!!
FFreaking Scary!Verified review, azhauntedhouses.com -
It was worth every penny … The actors need special mention. It was an act of passion they have for scaring people and they do it with finesse. Loved their makeup and costume.
LLoved the OutfitsVerified review, azhauntedhouses.com -
Completely different than other haunts I visited … full of enthusiastic actors, magnificent sets, and never before seen scares. Super fun and scary!!
