Halloween Nights

Halloween Nights at Eastern State Penitentiary is an immersive experience featuring FIVE thrilling haunted houses —plus historic tours, themed bars and lounges, live performances, and more — all within the walls of a real, abandoned 10-acre prison.

This Halloween festival of epic proportions is jam-packed with sinister scares, enchanting entertainment, delectable food and drinks, and unforgettable moments. Halloween Nights features Hollywood-quality sets, props, and special FX makeup; custom soundtracks; and more than 200 talented performers per night. And it all takes place in a truly one-of-a-kind setting.

All proceeds from Halloween Nights benefit Eastern State and support our mission to preserve America’s first penitentiary, advancing public understanding of the criminal justice system and its impact on the lives of those affected by it, to inspire a more just future.
