13th Floor Phoenix is back with three new frightening main attractions including Dead Again (an apocalyptic zombie fright), Lycan’s Curse (a supernatural werewolf attraction), and Cemetery of the Lost Souls (a chilling fright where Lilith, a forgotten girl, lures unsuspecting souls).

We can’t thank Phoenix enough for all of the support.”
Fear Farm returns with new twisted adventures and four terrifying attractions including Carnage, Clown Alley, Nautical Nightmare, and Dead Hour. Guests can experience the brand new “Scarecrow Mayhem” haunted corn maze, where they are guided by the faint light of a lantern, with ghoulish creatures awaiting in the dark, and “The Graveyard Shift: A Zombie Shooting Range”. Other daunting attractions include “Phobia: Sensory Overload,” a fully interactive fear inducing experience that requires guests to use their hands to guide their way, walk, duck, step over, squeeze through strange spaces. Fear Farm will also have spooky carnival rides, an amazing Midway of food and fun with roaming monsters providing extra scares throughout the haunted fairgrounds. This year, guests can also indulge in a wide array of food and libations, with options to suit every palate, from refreshing non-alcoholic choices to themed alcoholic drinks.
13th Floor Phoenix Attractions Include:
Dead Again – As global temperatures rose, an ancient virus buried in thawing Antarctica, Necrotherma virulenta (NTV-1), emerged, turning people into ravenous zombies. Thriving in the warmer climate, the virus spread rapidly and mutated aggressively. Cities fell to chaos as survivors fought to survive behind barricades. Led by an epidemiologist, a small group ventured into the heart of infection, seeking a way to stop Necrotherma Virulenta and save humanity.
Lycan’s Curse – The Legends of the North bring forgotten folklore creatures, lurking in the shadows of ancient winds. As the Blood Moon rises, the Order of the Beasts dons animal totem masks and hunts villagers. Shape-shifting wendigos, werewolves, and evil spirits emerge, their eyes gleaming with hunger. A lucky few, whose sacrifice pleases the Ancient Ones, gain lycanthropic transformation, turning the fight for survival into a desperate battle against the supernatural with only courage and cunning as weapons
Cemetery of the Lost Souls – In the Whispering Cemetery, Lilith, a forgotten girl, roams the moonlit graves. Once lively, she now lingers in shadows, her whispers carried by the wind. Abandoned and lost to time, she hopes visitors are her long-lost family or potential new ones. Under the Blood Moon, she lures unsuspecting souls, trapping them in the cemetery forever, binding their spirits to the tombstones, so she will never be alone again.
Fear Farm Phoenix Attractions Include:
Carnage – As the global temperatures soared, an ancient virus buried deep within thawing Antarctica was released into the atmosphere. The virus, named Necrotherma virulenta (NTV-1), once dormant for millennia, began to infect people, turning them into mindless, ravenous zombies. Scientists quickly discovered that the virus thrived in the warmer climate, spreading faster and mutating more aggressively than any pathogen previously known. With the life cycle of the infected short but extremely violent. Towns and cities were quickly overrun, with survivors scrambling for safety amidst the chaos, their only defense a hastily constructed network of barricades and safe zones. Amid the despair, a small group of survivors, led by a determined epidemiologist, ventured into the heart of the infected zone, hoping to find a hidden clue to combat the relentless spread of Necrotherma virulenta and save what remained of humanity.
Clown Alley – Boomer, the malevolent clown, ruled the Red Pumpkin Pale Carnival, a twisted nightmare of unspeakable horrors. Chased out of every town, the carnival set up in a small, unsuspecting village as Halloween approached. Behind the garish big top lay a dark secret—a portal to a nightmarish realm needing souls to sustain the carnival and grant eternal life. That Halloween, the carnival cast a shadow of fear, turning festive dreams into nightmares as Boomer and his crew hunted for fresh souls to feed their otherworldly hunger.
Nautical Nightmare – Captain Rust Hook, feared scourge of the seas, clawed back from a watery grave with madness driving him. His skeletal crew, cursed to servitude, awaited his command in swirling fog. Driven by vengeance, he prowled coastal villages, seizing souls on Halloween when the Blood Moon’s glow thinned the realm between worlds. Rust Hook, now able to recruit the living as his crew, became a harbinger of doom. The chilling legend spread, as terrified whispers told of his return to drag more souls into his ghostly crew.
Dead Hour – Only the most malevolent and blood-soaked fiends survived the sadistic trials. They now reign over the forsaken remains of the Slaughterhouse, warping it into a nightmarish labyrinth of madness and despair. The air thickens with dread as you navigate the twisted corridors, each turn more treacherous than the last. But beware—those who fall into the clutches of these savage, chainsaw-wielding Chainiacs will know the true meaning of terror. There is no escape from their bloodthirsty wrath.
