Seven may be a lucky number to most, but for those foolhardy enough to explore The Soap Factory’s infamous Haunted Basement in its seventh, luck is a resource in dreadfully short supply.
Directed for a second year by Noah Bremer, The Haunted Basement is a fully immersive terror adventure designed to traumatize new visitors and returning Haunted Basement fans alike. With a fiercely demented creative team, consisting of set designers, makeup & costume designers and even olfactory scientists, Bremer has crafted an experience that will disorient and terrify visitors at every shadowy twist and turn.
Fancy yourself a hard-hearted veteran of The Haunted Basement, never breaking a sweat, never uttering a scream? We throw down a gauntlet and challenge visitors to journey through the entirety of the Haunted Basement completely alone. For the first time ever, The Soap Factory is giving true thrill-seekers the chance to go it alone in The Haunted Basement. Test Subject tickets are on sale now, in extremely limited quantities, for Halloween night.
Test Subject tickets are a new addition to The Haunted Basement’s program, an opportunity for an individualized experience. These visitors, who choose the path of a Test Subject, will not have safety in numbers, or anyone to protect them from the creeps who dwell below. Test Subject tickets are designed for those who desire the ultimate terror adventure, and who have asked for it, year after year. Now in it’s 7th year, The Haunted Basement is ready to deliver the next level of fright.
Did all that screaming make you parched? Fridays and Saturday’s during The Haunted Basement, join us for a drink in the Spooky Speakeasy. With craft cocktails from the Northstar Bartenders Guild, an eerie atmosphere and spooky music, this pop-up bar is the perfect place to decompress after your journey through The Haunted Basement.
Too chicken to traverse The Haunted Basement? You can skip the scares and head right for a cocktail. The Spooky Speakeasy is open to the public. We’ll have killer cocktails from Bittercube’s Nick Kosevich and La Belle Vie’s Johnny Michaels every Friday and Saturday evening during October. Plus, the Spooky Speakeasy will be open for opening night on October 3rd and Halloween night on October 31st. Food trucks will be on hand each evening to help with midnight cravings.
And don’t forget! The Haunted Basement offers lights-on, no-frights ‘Fraidy Cat tours on Sunday mornings. These artist talks and behind the scenes tours of The Haunted Basement are an opportunity to see The Haunted Basement with no scares. Tickets are $10 and sold at the door. ‘Fraidy Cat tour dates are October 13, 20, 27.
