Top Haunted Houses in Vermont 2017

Vermont Top Haunt: Dead North

Just head dead north and you’ll run into it.

When a flourishing Vermont town began to slowly wither away into barren wasteland, its residents began referring to it as DEAD North, Vermont. It’s no surprise that DEAD North Haunted Corn Maze is at the top of the list of haunts in all of Vermont. The ghastly history that surrounds the demise of the town is woven into the storyline of this mile-long haunted maze. The haunt is open only two weekends in October, so with only four chances to visit this historic attraction, tickets are likely to vanish before you know it.

A Haunted House in an Actual Mortuary

Moving up from our 2016 Runner Up list to take the number one spot this year is Carpenter’s Mortuary, one of the only haunted houses in the US located in an actual, eighty-eight-year-old mortuary. As you make your way down the horrifying halls of the Spook House, you’ll come face to face with the murderous morticians and ghastly gravediggers that still reside in Mother Carpenter’s mortuary and children’s home of horrors. Yep. You read that right. A mortuary and children’s home occupying the same space; what could go wrong? Well, with an embezzling, murderous “Mother” in charge, a lot apparently.

This haunt is scary, so scary in fact that it’s recommended that you pass this one by if you suffer from certain medical conditions. (Check out their “Warnings” page on their site for more info.) Otherwise, this attraction is recommended for those 13 and up and the entire attraction is located indoors so it will operate rain or shine! In addition to frights, this is a haunt with a heart. Carpenter’s Mortuary has previously partnered with Vet Tix to provide free tickets for veterans on opening weekend. For that, we salute them.
