2025 Regular Season and Season Pass pricing is now available HERE.

2025 Regular Season single-day tickets and Season Passes are now on sale HERE.You may also purchase tickets on-site at our box office on the nights of the event, though tickets will be limited, so we advise purchasing them online in advance. We have a limited capacity each night, so purchasing your tickets online in advance is the only way to ensure that you will be able to attend on the night that you arrive.  The box office closes 60 minutes BEFORE the listed show closing time.  Also, you will save $$ by purchasing online.

The main things that we want everyone to be aware of for 2025 are:

• OPEN CONCEPT FORMAT – For the 2025 season, once they have entered the building, guests may explore the Factory in any order or direction!  Your ticket grants entry into 4 attractions plus the interactive attraction “Underworld.” Visit attractions in any order and even repeat one or two!
  Once you enter the building, you can choose whichever area of the Factory that you’d like to experience first.  This is an attempt to reduce wait times in our initial queue line for the 1st house.  If you want, head to Massacre on Mahoning first, or maybe go visit One-Eyed Jack’s Pirate Bar before heading into any houses.  But, choose wisely, as you can only go through 4 total houses per ticket per visit.
• SMOKING/VAPING AREA –  Located outside the building by Poison Ivy’s Greenhouse Bar is the brand new “LUCKY’S LAST STOP” smoking/vaping area.  Stop out at Lucky’s gas station for a quick smoke (no marijuana permitted) during your visit.  ALSO, visit MY DEE GOOD EATIN’ Food Truck while you’re out there.
• CHAPERONE POLICY – To enter the Factory of Terror, minors (guests 15 years old or younger) must be accompanied by a chaperone who is at least 21 years old and has a valid government-issued photo ID. One (1) chaperone can accompany up to six (6) minors per day. Minors cannot be left alone without a responsible adult chaperone (21+) present. The adult chaperone is responsible for the behavior and safety of the minors during their visit and must be present at all times.  It is important to note that the adult chaperone is not required to enter the building, but they will not be granted free admission if they wish to do so. Please do not purchase an online ticket for a minor and leave, as they will not be allowed into the attraction without an adult present on FOT property, be it the parking lot or the Midway/Carnevil Bar.
• Timed Ticketing – All guests purchasing tickets will be required to choose a date and a time slot during which they will attend.   You must use your ticket only on this day and time.  Anyone purchasing tickets on-site will be automatically assigned the next available time slot for that night, if available.
• Limited Capacity – We will be limiting the number of patrons that we can put through the shows each night.  Each time slot will have a certain amount of tickets available, and once they are sold out, we can not allow any more customers in for the night.  As a result, our box office may close earlier than the listed time.
• Digital Tickets – All tickets purchased online will be delivered digitally via email.  So, you must have a means of accessing your tickets once you have purchased them.  We will scan all tickets, either on your phones or on tickets printed from your email.
• Attraction Changes – You’ll notice some changes to our long-standing attractions, some large, some small, all exciting.
• KARAOKE! – On Fridays & Saturdays, you’ll find our KARAOKE STAGE inside the All-American Battle Bar.  On Sundays, the fun moves to the area between Massacre on Mahoning and The Abyss.
• FOUR THEMED BARS AVAILABLE
  
  • ALL haunted attraction ticket holders have access to all bars at FOT (those under 21 only have access to 3.)
  • On Sundays, ONLY Poison Ivy’s Greenhouse Bar and Forsaken Bar on Bourbon will be open. The Bar Crawl is NOT available on Sundays.
  • CARNEVIL CIRCUS BAR ~ Located in our Midway.  Before you even enter the building, you’ll have the chance to enjoy this fun bar with carnival-themed drinks & decor.  NEW FOR 2025 ~ Now ALSO accessible from INSIDE the haunted house by the entrance to Industrial Nightmare. Open Friday-Saturday only
  • POISON IVY’S GREENHOUSE BAR ~ Located before the queue for the Forsaken Asylum, right by our LUCKY’S LAST STOP SMOKING PATIO. Open Friday-Saturday only
  • FORSAKEN BAR ON BOURBON ~ Our OG bar is still here, with some updated decor and the same fun times & wonderful drinks. Open ALL DAYS
  • ONE-EYED JACK’S PIRATE BAR (21+ only) ~ At the end of our final attraction you will find the UNBELIEVABLE One-Eyed Jack’s.  Visit the pirates on their ship docked in a coastal village. Expect a lot of rum, a lot of fun, and scenery the likes of which you have never seen here at FOT. Open Friday-Saturday only
• ALL AMERICAN BATTLE BAR (21+)  ~ Guests 21+ will have the opportunity to visit our fun entertainment venue, All American Battle Bar (featuring the full bar called BULLSEYES AXE BAR.) The Battle Bar features axe throwing, diamond duck pin bowling, pool, darts, cornhole, shuffleboard, putting green, and more!  Walk-in availability for axe throwing or bowling is NOT guaranteed, and neither is included with your haunt ticket or admission into the Battle Bar.  Admission to the Battle Bar is FREE to all 21+ guests that enter the axe venue from INSIDE the haunted house (the RED door), but there is a $10 cover charge per person for those who enter the axe venue from the outside (BLUE door) with no pre-scheduled axe reservations.  NO children will be permitted into this venue, even with adults.  For more information, visit All American Battle Bar ~ Canton Open Friday-Saturday only

VIP Fast Pass admission allows you to bypass all general admission lines during your time slot.  A Fast Pass only allows you to go through the show one time.

Immediate Access admission allows you to bypass all lines at head directly to the very front of the line. Only available at the box office, and very limited quantities are available. Does not allow the purchaser to go through the show more than once.

The Bar Crawl ticket is available to patrons 21 and over.  If you want to experience the ambiance and festivity of the haunt, and want to visit our bars, but don’t like the super-scary stuff of the haunts themselves, the Bar Crawl ticket is for you.  You’ll receive access to all FOUR THEMED BARS in the building plus All American Battle Bar.  More info can be found at thehauntedbarcrawl.com.  A limited amount of bar crawl tickets will be available online and on-site for each time slot.  The Bar Crawl is only available on Fridays and Saturdays.

Peak Nights (all Saturdays in October) are the busiest nights of the season, usually. To try and spread that crowd out to other days so as to reduce the wait times for our customers and better serve everyone, we offer higher prices for those days. This is an attempt to entice people to attend other days during the season.

All guests purchasing tickets will be required to choose a date and an entry window during which they will attend.   You must use your ticket only on this day and time.  Anyone purchasing tickets on-site will be automatically assigned the next available entry window for that night, if available.

• You will be permitted INSIDE the building within 0-60 minutes of your entry window, and into the ATTRACTION within 0-120 minutes of your entry window.

If you have a smartphone, we can scan the tickets from your phone.  Printed tickets are also accepted.

If you purchased tickets online and need to change the date and/or time slot, good news… you can do this yourself with just the click of a mouse/finger!  Just head to our ticketing page and scroll all the way down to the bottom of the page.  Look for the “Upgrade your existing order” link, click on it, and follow the provided instructions. OR, you can email us at fot1031@gmail.com and we will get to it as soon as we are able.

Just like sporting events & others, we do not offer refunds unless you have purchased the ticket insurance while buying your tickets online.  Please see our Refund Requests page for more information.

If you have online tickets, printed or on your smartphone, you may bypass the ticket booth line and go directly to the midway near the attraction entrance. However, you will NOT be able to queue up to enter the building until we prepare to serve your entry window.  Once you are in the line for your entry window, you will enter the building within 60 minutes of the time on your ticket, and will enter the ATTRACTION within 120 minutes of your entry window, depending on how early you got in line for your window. Arriving anytime on that day AFTER your entry window is fine, you will just not be let in early.

However, if you wish to upgrade to Fast Pass or have any other questions or changes, you must first either report to the ticket booth or click the Upgrade button on our ticketing site.

One general admission ticket will garner you entry into all attractions open that night and all themed bars open that night (if you’re over 21.)

Axe throwing is an additional charge separate from the haunted house and must be reserved in advance. To book an axe-throwing lane, visit allamericanbattlebar.com.

You may currently purchase 2025 single-day admission tickets and season passes online now.

You can also inquire about group reservations by emailing us at fot1031@gmail.com.

No, your ticket is for one entry only.  However, if you are a Season Pass holder, you may enter as many times as you wish.

NEW FOR 2025: Once they have their official 2025 SEASON PASS CARD (please obtain at the season pass window at either the Factory or the Schoolhouse), Season Pass Holders can now bypass the ticket booth altogether if they are not bringing guests! Just make sure you bring your SEASON PASS CARD and A PHOTO ID every time you arrive.

Season pass holders and their guests do not have to reserve a day or entry window.  Just show up and head to the box office window #3 to obtain your entry ticket and purchase your buddy passes for the night.  We will always make room for our season pass holders regardless of whether or not we have sold out for the night.

Yes. Every ticketed guest will make it through all of the attractions open on that particular night as long as you arrive before our front doors close.  However, with our free-roaming policy, we do ask that you ensure that you visit the Forsaken Asylum, Industrial Nightmares, and The Underworld earlier in your visit, as those attractions will close first.

Our box office closes 60 minutes BEFORE the listed show close each night, and may close even earlier due to attendance capacity limits, so you may not be able to purchase a ticket if you arrive close to the listed closing time.

We accept cash, credit, debit, Apple Pay, and Samsung Pay. However, all credit/debit transactions at the box office will have a $1 service fee added to the ticket price.

Yes. We take Visa, MasterCard, and American Express. However, if you use a credit or debit card at the box office, there is a $1 service fee per transaction included in the ticket price.

Yes. We take both Apple Pay & Samsung Pay at the box office, bars, and merchandise stand. We also take Cash App now (NOT at the box office. At the bar(s) and gift shop only.)

We offer discounted tickets on Sundays (also even moreso for Kids on Sundays.)

Also, for all ONLINE PURCHASES ONLY, all 10:30 pm & 11:00 pm time slots are discounted.

We have no current student discounts for 2025.

Yes, we will offer discounts to any groups of 20 people & over.  To inquire about group discounts, email us at fot1031@gmail.com at least 24 hours before you plan to attend and we’ll get back to you ASAP.

Yes, we are implementing a chaperone policy for 2025.  To enter the Factory of Terror, minors (guests 15 years old or younger) must be accompanied by a chaperone who is at least 21 years old and has a valid government-issued photo ID. One (1) chaperone can accompany up to six (6) minors per day. Minors cannot be left alone without a responsible adult chaperone (21+) present. The adult chaperone is responsible for the behavior and safety of the minors during their visit and must be present at all times.

Yes! It is very scary!

However, different people are scared of/by various things.  Some are very hard to scare, and some are easy to scare. Even if we somehow aren’t able to scare you, we’ll still work hard to make your experience as entertaining as possible, even if it’s through laughter.

Just like sporting events & others, we do not offer refunds. If you or some of your party were not able to attend and you have purchased the ticket insurance while buying your tickets online, please see our Refund Requests page for more information.

If you get too scared, stay calm and tell the actor in the room and they will escort you outside or get the show manager to do so. Please note, as with sporting events and large attractions, we do not give refunds. However, if you purchased the ticket insurance add-on for $3.95 when buying your tickets online, and you can’t use your tickets at all, we will refund your tickets no questions asked (minus the ticket insurance fee.)

No, you do not.  Every haunt admission ticket includes access to all 4 of our themed bars (for those 21+.)  However, once you’ve exited the building after going through the haunts and visiting the bars one time, you are free to purchase a Bar Crawl ticket to take another run at the bars if you’d like and there is time.

The Bar Crawl ticket is only available on Fridays and Saturdays.  Only 1 inside bar will be open on Sundays (Forsaken Bar.)  You will need to purchase a general admission haunt ticket to visit the bar on Sunday.

There is no time limit to your visit (aside from the end of the night when we are nearing closing time.) You can take as much time as you’d like once inside the building, and can spend as much time at the bars as you like. Again, you will be asked to move on when that particular bar or attraction is closing for the night. Closer to the listed closing time, certain attractions near the entrance of the building may begin to close to facilitate moving the crowds closer to the exit. Announcements will be made that these attractions will be closing, so listen closely and make sure to head up there when you hear these announcements if you’d like to experience those attractions.

We will be separating and assigning groups, sort of like on a rollercoaster in all haunts aside from The Abyss. On slower nights, we may allow groups of less than 6 to go through. Groups will be no larger than 6 people for the best experience.  Larger groups will be split up into different queues.  Larger groups than that risk having the scares ruined for those in the back of the group.

You will remain with your smaller group throughout the attractions, however, larger groups over 6 will be split up.

The Factory of Terror does NOT have heating or air conditioning in the haunts themselves, so please dress for the current weather conditions.  We try and heat up a few common areas, but it is a large, old factory without HVAC in most places.  Sandals, heels, or any other open-toed shoes are strongly discouraged due to uneven surfaces and tripping hazards throughout the attractions. You may come in contact with dirt and theatrical blood, so please wear clothes that can get dirty.  We are not responsible for any damaged or soiled clothing or bags.

You are free to dress in your favorite costume as you please. We just ask that you do not wear any full silicone masks or face paint, or bring any props with you.

Yes. We’re open rain or shine.

Lines start forming between 30 and 60 minutes prior to the box office opening. On our busy nights, it is best to show up early to avoid long lines. The box office will open, and we will begin selling tickets at the listed opening of the attractions.  Our midway near the attraction entrance will open 30 minutes before the show opens.

Saturdays are our busiest nights. You may experience wait times from 1 to 3+ hours, though this should change with our timed ticketing. You WILL enter the building within 60 minutes of the time slot that you have purchased. If you are in a hurry, Fast Passes are available to get to the front of the lines for an extra $15, and a limited number of Immediate Access passes are available at the box office for $90 each.

Please keep in mind that we must find a happy medium between making wait times shorter and making sure everyone has the best experience possible.

Yes, but the lines may stretch outside on our busiest nights. Once inside the building, you will not have to go back outside until you’ve completed the haunted house.  However, the line to buy tickets is NOT indoors, so we recommend purchasing tickets online in advance so you can bypass the ticket booth.

You will be getting scared for approximately 45-60 minutes. This does not count the wait times. The time it takes to get through depends on how fast you walk… or run!

The FRONT DOORS at FOT close* at Midnight on Fridays & Saturdays, 9 pm on Sundays, and 11 pm on Thursday 10/30.  HOWEVER, the BOX OFFICE closes 1 HOUR EARLY each night.  *If all outstanding tickets have been scanned, the front doors may close BEFORE this time.

We will have an official photo op where we will be taking professional photos of each group that may be purchased at the Gift Shop at the exit or on our web site afterwards.  Also, there are multiple free photo-ops. You are welcome to take pictures while in line or in common spaces, but once inside the haunted houses themselves, you may not take any pictures or videos of our actors, scenes, or props.  If you are seen taking photos or videos of any kind, our show managers will ask you to cease doing so.  This does not include the queue lines for each show, the French Quarter at the Factory midway, any bars, or the exit merchandise area, where you are more than welcome to take photos & videos.

No. We work hard to update and make changes every year. We promise we will never be exactly the same two years in a row. 2025 features large updates to some of our oldest fan-favorite houses.

There are no claustrophobia tunnels in the attraction for 2025. However, we will feature a crawl-through in one section this year (bypass available.) There are also small corridors to pass through, so alert any employees if an area is too small for you, and they will take you through a bypass.

Guests enter at their discretion. Factory of Terror is not responsible for injury. We suggest calling your OB/GYN and/or physician to discuss the situation with them.

Yes. There are a few scenes that aren’t accessible, but the majority of the show is! Alert the ticket takers, and employees will then lead you to the accessible bypasses.

Also, no outside (meaning any which has not been purchased at our attraction) food, drink, or alcohol may be brought onto our property.  In addition, we do not allow strollers or large bags to be brought into the building.

No weapons (including FIREARMS or KNIVES) will be permitted inside the building. Security officers will also be at the attraction entrance screening guests with metal detectors.  These items will be confiscated and NOT returned, so PLEASE leave them at home or in your locked vehicles before heading into the attraction.

For the most part, no.  Some of the more experienced actors at FOT may lightly touch you, but you will not be harmed or touched inappropriately.

However, at no time are any guests permitted to touch any of our actors, even if they touched first.

Yes. We use theatrical fog, snow, & haze to create many effects in our shows.

Yes. If you have problems with epilepsy, please talk to your doctor beforehand or refrain from entering the show. If you do, alert the ticket taker at the beginning of each attraction and they can have the show manager escort you around problematic areas.

Officers from the Canton City Police Department are on site during all operating hours to ensure the safety of all inside the building.  Additional security officers are present in strategic locations to ensure that no guest harms our actors, other employees, or other guests.

Yes. Any dangerous or offensive behavior is grounds to be thrown out. Whether or not you will be thrown out is at the discretion of the Factory of Terror staff. Such behavior includes assault (verbal or physical) of our staff or other patrons, or vandalism of any of our sets/props, as well as anything else deemed to be worthy of expulsion.

In accordance with state law, smoking and/or vaping is prohibited INSIDE the building.

Staff will patrol the queue lines to ensure that guests wearing the over-21 wristbands that we will provide once IDs are checked consume alcohol. Please drink responsibly. Only 2 drinks will be served per ID per transaction.

We reserve the right to remove any patrons we deem to be too intoxicated for the safety of our staff and customers, including the intoxicated parties themselves.  Also, the Hide-A-Way Buffalo Grill is next door if you’d like to hang out before or after.  That Halloween Bar is also just minutes from the Factory.

A food truck will be available for guests. For 2025, we will be featuring the MY DEE GOOD EATIN’ Food Truck.  You will find them outside on our Lucky’s Last Stop smoking patio.  You can also order food from the truck at our SNACK STAND inside Bourbon Street, where you’ll also be able to grab some gourmet Mini Pancakes, water, soda, and other small snacks.

YES!  The SCREAMSHOP at the Factory of Terror. There you will find FOT, Halloween, and horror pop culture merchandise.

Also, each of the 4 themed bars will be selling exclusive shirts that you can purchase ONLY at each respective bar.
