  1. Pennhurst Asylum, Spring City PA

  10. Cutting Edge, Fort Worth TX
  11. Bates Model, Philadelphia PA
  12. Bennett’s Curse, Baltimore MD

Be sure to check out their full list of 31 scary attractions, along with their other breakdowns:

  • Best Scare Actors: Netherworld
  • Most Extreme: Erebus
  • Best Year Round Attraction: 13th Floor (Disney’s Haunted Mansion came in at #2)

So here’s a question for you: when you go to a scare attraction, DO YOU LIKE BEING TOUCHED WHILE IN A HAUNTED HOUSE? It ends up that some haunted houses are changing their “No Touch” policy to one that creates a more interactive activity.  One house rules allow their actors to touch guests “above the shoulders and below the knee”.

Cause that’s safer than “no touching allowed”, isn’t it?
