It is best to wear comfortable clothing that is appropriate
for that days weather. Do remember that you will be entering a cave

How long does it take to go through
the Haunted Cavern?


The Ruby Falls Haunted Cavern is a free form haunt,
where guests move at their own pace
(with a little encouragement).
 
There are three elements within the haunt itself;

1. Cave Section
2. Bus Ride
3. Top Haunt

On average it will take an average of 30-45 minutes to
complete the full experience. But if we do our job well,
you will go through much quicker.

This year the Haunted Cavern will host an expanded exit area
which will include food, haunted retail and a special attraction
named “The Last Ride”

Early in the season, arriving around 8pm is fine,
but as we get closer to Halloween the crowds get larger,

wait entertainment will be provided by our line Monsters and Sliders.

ruining other customers' experience but you're hurting the actors' eyes.
The monsters working outside will often pose for pictures if approached.
