THE DENT SCHOOLHOUSE

Cincinnati, Ohio

The Dent Schoolhouse will take you back to your worst memories from high school. Located in an abandoned schoolhouse, it’s bound to bring terror to children and adults alike!

The schoolhouse was a public school building that opened in 1894. The attraction’s allegedly true story says that the school closed in the 1950s after a janitor named Charlie was suspected of foul play after kids started going missing. Will you solve their murders and make it out alive yourself?

Some of the rooms you’ll see include Charlie’s workshop, bedroom, boiler room, and even the janitor’s student holding cell. There’s also a Detention Hall, which consists of an intense clown maze! In addition to the schoolhouse, this site offers the outdoor Queen City Slaughter Yard for extra scares.

You can either amp up your experience or make it easier to take in. The house offers lights on nights for families and small children. They can take in the creepy decor and rooms without any actors present, making it a milder experience. In November, you can also walk through the schoolhouse in complete darkness…if you dare!

One of the most unique things about this haunted house in Ohio is its Christmas in July event. They’ve opened A Christmas Nightmare, which combines Halloween and Christmas into one big extravaganza! They promise that you’ll see The Grinch and Krampus inside, as well as many of their classic characters. Hope you’re filled with lots of cheer!

The Dent Schoolhouse has been mentioned in several recent publications, including Oprah Magazine, City Beat, CNN, Travel Pulse, and Glamour. Don’t miss out on this haunted house in OH!

 

THE EDGIEST HAUNTED HOUSE IN OH!

HAUNTED HOOCHIE

Pataskala, Ohio

Think there aren’t any extreme, heart-pounding haunted houses near me? You’ve got it all wrong!

Haunted Hoochie boasts itself as the world’s most extreme haunted house. They state that it’s filled with “graphic and violent horror” that may be offensive and disturbing to some. A full sensory assault waits for you in their Dead Acres attraction, meaning the actors can touch you!

Haunted Hoochie used to be located entirely outside, but it now has a venue to haunt its guests both inside and out. Before you even enter, you’ll see fire for miles around from the top of the haunted house OH. Rock music plays from the 50-foot long stage show, and you can shoot live hecklers with a paintball gun. As you wait for the attraction, you can watch horror movies on their screens.

You can go on a hayride full of screaming patrons through wooded trails, or you can go inside…if you dare. It calls itself “scarier than a broken rollercoaster ride,” and this haunted house is made up of a mix of actors, animatronics, and state of the art robotics. You’ll travel through old log cabins, musty caverns, underground cellars, rooms on fire, and across bridges over swamps filled with live monster fish.

Doubt its extreme nature? In 2015, USA Today reported about some of the controversial elements of Haunted Hoochie. These included a suicide by shotgun, demon birth, scenes from the 9/11 terrorist attack, nuns bearing swastikas, and faces being skinned off. The Scare Factor also put out a review of their 2020 version of the house, which talks even more about the horrors within. Yikes!
