Reno, Nevada Closed 2022 to 2024

Dark Corner Haunted House

Three Halloween seasons inside Reno's National Bowling Stadium.

Dark Corner Haunted House opened in fall 2022 in one of the strangest venues a haunt ever occupied: the National Bowling Stadium in downtown Reno. A professional-grade walkthrough materialized inside a civic landmark, and for three seasons it gave downtown a real haunted house within walking distance of the casinos.

Then came the plot twist. Maurice White, board president of the Nevada State Prison Preservation Society, walked through the inaugural Reno season, liked what he saw, and made the crew an offer roughly no haunt builder could refuse: come do this inside an actual decommissioned prison. The team took it. Dark Corner’s downtown era ended, and Dark Prison opened inside the Nevada State Prison in Carson City for 2025.
