Haunted houses in Kansas City provide plenty of thrills for those that like their Halloween fun on the scary side.
If you want to scream, feel chills or get a good fright there are several haunted houses (and more) swinging the doors open to unleash ghosts, goblins and evil spirits – all in the name of a good time. Expect some things to be different as these attractions adhere to keeping everyone safe and healthy.
Our list of Kansas City haunted houses and ghost tours includes prices and any discounts we can find. Some cost more than what we would usually promote on our site. We’ve included them so you have a full look at what is happening for Halloween in Kansas City. Also, we think some people may be willing to splurge on entertainment options given that both scary and family-friendly Halloween activities in Kansas City were limited last year.
Check back because we’re still waiting to hear back from some places about their 2021 plans. If you know of any fun or frightening Halloween activities in Kansas City, drop us a note at news@kansascityonthecheap.com.
Follow the links for more information. If you have any questions about a specific haunted house, price, or discount, please contact the haunted house directly. We don’t work for any of them, so we probably won’t have the answer.
Don’t be haunted by missed deals and discounts. Instead, subscribe to Kansas City on the Cheap’s daily emails (just one a day). You can also follow us on Facebook and Twitter.
