NETHERWORLD THEME ANNOUNCEMENT:

A strange metallic obelisk of unknown origin has blasted out a powerful electromagnetic pulse and seized control of all systems in the secret base known only as the BOX. Now, as if with a mind of their own, the robotics and cloning sectors are creating a nightmarish assembly line of Cyborgs…half metal and half flesh, animated by a strange energy emanating from the mysterious artifact.

This army of hybrid horrors is making its way to the surface armed with the most advanced weaponry imaginable and bent on total domination! Can you and your team halt this menace before they escape to wreak havoc on an unsuspecting world? Get ready for CYBORG SHOCK!

————————————————————
COVID-19 has brought on a good number of changes that you can expect to see at NETHERWORLD this year. One key change (related to this, our 2nd theme announcement) is that all tickets will include both haunts this year. In an effort to better control traffic patterns and better allow for social distancing, each ticket purchased will include admission into both Halloween Nightmares AND Cyborg Shock. Upon exiting Halloween Nightmares, guests will proceed directly into our second attraction, Cyborg Shock.

Additionally, please know that tickets this year will be greatly limited and will only be available in a reserved date and time fashion. There will be no General Admission tickets this year. If you’ve ever been, it will be far more akin to one of our Valentine’s or Christmas events than the festival atmosphere we have all come to expect during late October.

What will this mean for our patrons? Shorter Wait Times. More Predictable Entry Times. Easier Parking. Smaller Groups. More Spacing Between Groups.

We’re still finalizing our plans, but we hope to have more details, including COVID procedures, an updated calendar and a ticketing link announced very soon.

Netherworld Haunted House is conveniently located just off of Exit 9 of HWY 78 at 1313 Netherworld Way, Stone Mountain, GA 30087.
Also check out Escape The Netherworld, featuring 4 creepy, fun escape rooms like no other, also located at 1313 Netherworld Way. Pick your poison (Sasquatch, Nosferatu, Tiki Island or Haunted) at www.EscapeTheNetherWorld.com

ATLANTA: Good news fright fans – the team behind the world-famous NETHERWORLD Haunted House is thrilled to introduce this year’s main theme, HALLOWEEN NIGHTMARES. Haunt guests will soon be able to enjoy an over-the-top adventure, loaded with amazing new experiences they won’t soon forget!

Based on classic harvest and horror themes, HALLOWEEN NIGHTMARES’ story begins over one hundred years ago when the survivors of a brutal family feud sought vengeance against another mountain clan. Utilizing evil powers stolen from monsters beneath the earth, they were transformed into savage bat-like creatures and slaughtered their enemies on Halloween night!

“We’re working nonstop on the creation of elaborate sets, giant monsters and mind-numbing effects just as we have every year since our inaugural season in 1997,” said Billy Messina, NETHERWORLD Haunted House co-creator. “Our 2020 main attraction will be a terrifying yet nostalgic romp down Halloween Lane, and seriously, during this time when nothing seems normal thanks to COVID-19, who can’t use a little spine-tingling fun these days?”

This Halloween, the bat-like creatures will resurface once again, disguised as distorted costumed revelers bent on bringing destruction to the cursed town of Whyshburg and only the Children of Autumn, a group of mysterious Trick or Treaters with strange powers stand in their way. Guests can expect eerie shadow creatures, legions of grinning jack-o’-lanterns, the Lair of the Ancient Alchemist, the Chamber of the Elder Thing and the Temple of the Bat God. Prepare for more vintage Halloween horror than your melted mind can handle! Stay tuned for details on official opening dates, ticket prices and more by visiting again here at www.fearworld.com.

“Though we are beyond excited to announce the theme of our 2020 haunt, we know that COVID-19 will present many obstacles this fall,” said Billy Messina, NETHERWORLD Haunted House co-creator. “We want to ensure that we are taking the necessary precautions, while at the same time presenting a fun and entertaining experience. We have developed several plans regarding ticketing, queue lines, disinfecting, and more, and are working on stringent behind the scenes protocols. So much can and will change in the coming months, so we feel it’s premature to announce our definitive COVID-19 safety plan. Rest assured; we are constantly assessing and evolving our plans and protocols as more information and resources become available.”

Those seeking a little extra adventure can still get their fix while anxiously awaiting this season’s haunts through NETHERWORLD’s recently reopened escape rooms and outdoor laser tag arena. Both NETHERWORLD Laser Adventure and Escape the NETHERWORLD are being vigilant in light of COVID-19. Guests will find various safety measures in place that protect both them and employees outlined on NETHERWORLD’s respective websites. For more details or to purchase tickets, visit www.escapethenetherworld.com or www.netherworldlasertag.com.

This coming Halloween, Netherworld fans will be typing in a new address into Google Maps to get to the haunted house. The street that Netherworld operates on has been renamed Netherworld Way.

“Since planting roots here in Stone Mountain three years ago, those roots have only grown stronger, but having this new address really cements this place as home,” Netherworld co-creator Billy Messina said in a prepared statement. “It’s been a crazy year and the news of the new street name is truly a positive light and a hopeful sign of things to come. I’m beyond thrilled that our guests will be plugging 1313 Netherworld Way into their phones when we open the doors for our 24th year of fear.”

Started by Messina and Ben Armstrong in 1997, the haunted house moved to Stone Mountain in 2017 and opened a year-round escape room experience and laser tag arena.

GPS services will still recognize the old address: 2076 Park Pl. Blvd, Stone Mountain, GA. Additionally, emergency and postal services already recognize the new street name.
