Is it scary?

THE HOTEL: This is an intense interactive haunted attraction designed to take you to the limits of your own fear. On average, only about 40% of our guests make it past the first room. Read one of our guest reviews for yourself:

GHOST TOUR: This is not an actor-filled haunted house, and is not designed to be scary. This is a real haunted building with multiple occurences of paranormal activity, and sometimes the spirits do get playful and tend to startle guests. We've even had several guests whose tour became so intense that they couldn't even finish the tour!

Is it different from last year?

The theme of THE HOTEL changes every year and for every season. If you've seen us before, expect a new experience this season!

What can I expect on the Ghost Tour?

We tour the upper two floors of the hotel. The building is still in the state it was in when it was abandoned in the 1940's. There is no electricity on these floors. There will be at least two guides on your tour to direct you through the hotel with flashlights. We ask that you do not bring your own flashlights as it diminishes the experience. You will need to be able to climb three flights of stairs, and if you book the extended tour, you also need to be able to climb up and down through a hole in the wall. As for the experience, expect dark, creepy rooms and hallways, dark shadows moving around, and unexplained noises as the spirits find various ways to make their presence known.

Is it handicapped accessible?

THE HOTEL: The Hotel is not handicapped accessible. Some of the passageways are very narrow and not able to accommodate a wheelchair. The attraction is on the first floor of the building, and therefore may be accessible for some people.

GHOST TOUR: The ghost tour is not handicapped accessible. We tour the upper two floors of the hotel. There is no electricity on the upper floors of the building and thus, no elevator. For the ghost tour, you will need to be able to climb a total of three flights of stairs, and if you book the extended tour, you also need to be able to climb up and down through a hole in the wall.

Any group discounts?

Yes! We offer a 10% discount off of any ticket price for groups of 15 or more people. Please contact us directly by email or Facebook messenger to book your group.

Do you close for rain?

All of our attractions are indoor. Rain does not prevent us from operating. If there is a small waiting time to enter, you may wait inside our lobby. If there is a long line, you can wait in your car and we will text you when it is your time to enter.

Certainly! We'll be glad to host your special event at The Garrett. Please contact us directly by email or Facebook messenger to book your group.

How many people can go in at once?

THE HOTEL: We can accommodate a maximum of 6 people per group. Having more people diminishes the experience and makes it hard to move through the attraction.

GHOST TOUR: We can accommodate a maximum of 6 people per group. Having more people tends to be disruptive to the investigation and negatively affects the experience. If you NEED more people on your tour, please contact us and we can discuss your options.

Will I see real spirits?

THE HOTEL: This is an actor-filled haunted house, located inside a real haunted building. It is possible that you may encounter a REAL ghost while inside.

GHOST TOUR: This tour is conducted by real psychics, and their information is verified using paranormal detection equipment. The tour is designed to uncover REAL ghost activity. Spirits are unpredictable, and so we cannot guarantee any paranormal activity on your tour however, every tour we have conducted in the past has experienced some form of activity.

What can I expect from the psychic reading?

You can expect a wide array of experience, depending on the type of reading you choose. We offer tarot reading, runes, and traditional psychic reading. In most situations, the spirit realm decides what information you will receive based on your individual need. You may be able to communicate with a loved one who has crossed over. You may receive answers to questions about your life path or you may receive direction on your spiritual journey. Despite the outcome, we will attempt to direct your reading to your desired goal, but ultimately the spirits are in control.

If you wish to attempt to make contact with a loved one, please bring an item with you which belonged to them.

Can I bring someone with me for the psychic reading?

The psychic reading is an individualized experience. The best results will occur when you meet alone with your psychic and any of their assistants. Ultimately the spirits choose whom and how they wish to communicate, and having extra people in the room with you could cause the reading to become focused on them at any time. As such, if you wish to have someone accompany you, then you will need to book the Psychic Reading for Two.

Will I be touched?

THE HOTEL: This is an interactive haunted house. YES! The actors may touch you but are not allowed to touch them. Anyone doing so will be removed from the attraction without a refund.

GHOST TOUR: There are no scare-actors on the tour, however we have had numerous reports of guests being touched by the spirits... a brush on the neck or arm, or in some cases pushed, or even yanked back against the wall!
