Utah may be famous for its stunning national parks and ski resorts, but it also hosts some creepy spots that promise family friendly scares or full-on scares – here are Utah’s finest haunted houses!
Moon Lake in High Uintas may appear idyllic, but appearances can be misleading. Many campers have reported encountering the ghost of a young girl who found herself submerged underwater and emerged later with blue skin and wet clothing.
Asylum 49
This haunted house can be found within the former Tooele Hospital building and has long been considered an active paranormal location. Additionally, owners have conducted paranormal tours through this space and found evidence of ghostly activity within.
Castle of Chaos’ haunted house features several rooms designed to scare visitors out. While other haunted houses may rely on distracting you or physically separating you from your group, Castle of Chaos uses creative and imaginative means to disturb visitors – from Egyptian curses, Cannibal Kitchens, and Army of Darkness (an alien-themed haunted house) – in order to give visitors the scare they’ve come for!
Utah Haunted Houses offers one of the only COVID-19-free haunted houses, and reportedly gets better each year. However, be warned that you could find yourself grabbed, touched or separated from your group – providing one of the most psychologically terrifying experiences available here in Utah.

Nightmare on 13th will make you shudder with fear with two separate attractions in one location – both its main haunt attraction and an additional Institute of Terror attraction included in their combo ticket package.
The main haunt is filled with nightmarish characters like hoodoo queens, clowns and witches; while The Institute of Terror offers an unforgettable experience where visitors can roam the halls of an asylum for criminally insane patients.
