SEE OUR WORK AT CROWBAR
Our artists have gathered to bring our horrible art to dredge the halls for the first time at CrowBar, a local cocktail bar and distillary in historic Hamm’s campus on Saint Paul’s East Side. If you've ever wanted to visit a haunted house but don't want to be jumpscared this is the perfect time and place to sit with a delicious cocktail without the scares.
HAUNTED BASEMENT │ WHERE TO HAUNT NEXT?
Since 2005 we have been terrifying the Twin Cities with absurdist psychological horror. We started in the depths of the Soap Factory in Minneapolis, the bowels of the Research Laboratories of the 2010 ArtBlock, the corpse of the Herbergers at the Rosedale Mall, and at Bumbling Fools Meadery. If you have a space in need of some guts, gore, and mayhem reach out to info@hauntedbasement.org.
Art of Fear
terrify you.

What to Expect
The Haunted Basement is a basement, it's deliciously moist. Expect strong smells, physical contact, and projectile liquids. You may get very messy, you may have to crawl, and you may find yourself in a confined space with something horrible.
What to Wear
The Haunted Basement is a great place to take a date. However, it is a bad idea to show up in nice clothes. They will get dirty. Make sure your shoes are closed toed. Don't wear heels.
What to Bring
Make sure you bring a valid ID. Leave your bags at home, if you don't need it, don't bring it. Also bring a good attitude, prepare to scream, laugh, and for your skin to crawl.
