Thrills & Chills Await this Halloween Season at Fright Nights WV!

WestVirginiaHauntedHouses.com recently sat down with Ashley Long of Fright Nights WV, to discuss what's new at the haunted attraction for the 2020 Halloween Season!

What's new at Fright Nights WV for 2020? Do you have any new rides, attractions, or special features that Haunt Seekers should know about?

NEW Haunt Experience "Ghost Town"- There’s nowhere to hide in Ghost Town as phantoms of gunslingers, cowboys, miners and saloon gals dedicate their deaths to one sole purpose.. to haunt and terrify anyone who sets foot in their town.

We also have new safety guidelines to prevent the spread of Covid-19. Our guidelines and precautions are listed on our website.

What are you most excited about for the 2020 Halloween Season?

I am most excited to offer haunt goers a chance to get out of the house and have a fun, yet safe, activity/event to experience for Halloween. We are also in a brand new location so if you missed the haunt in 2019, you have to check out 2020.

What differentiates Fright Nights WV from other local haunts in West Virginia?

Fright Nights WV is a one stop shop- we have 5 completely different Haunt Experiences that you get to walk through with just one ticket purchase.

How long has Fright Nights WV been in business? Can you tell us a bit more about Fright Nights WV's history?

This is our 11th season! We started as a haunted trail and up until 2019, we took over the resort's barn and farm allowing us to expand our haunt even further!

How long is a typical haunt experience at Fright Nights WV from start to finish?

Fright Nights takes about 15-20 minutes to walk through the entire haunt and you are entertained every bit of the way.

On a scale from 1 to 10, how scary would you say Fright Nights WV is? Why?

Fright Nights would be about a 9! For personal reasons, we don't do a whole lot of "gore" or satanic scenes, but we make up for it with our creativity and master scares!

Does Fright Nights WV's property have any real haunted history? Do you have a spooky encounter you'd like to share?

There are stories that our property has a real haunted history. Although I've never experienced it, others have told me they have in the past.

What inspired you to open up a haunted attraction? What's your favorite part of the business?

We've always enjoyed going to haunted attractions and finally had the perfect opportunity to open our own haunted house right in the middle of a resort/hotel property. We are the only one of our kind. My favorite part of the business is meeting people from all over the country that travel to see and experience what we've created.

How has new technology (i.e. animatronics, special props, etc) helped you to enhance Fright Nights WV?

We have a team that can make custom animatronics so a lot of the props we have in Fright Nights, you won't see anywhere else. We have incorporated many different technologies in the haunt and constantly challenge ourselves to have the latest and best haunted house trends.

Can Fright Nights WV accommodate large groups? How many people can experience Fright Nights WV together as a group?

We certainly can accommodate large groups! We do limit group size to enter inside together, but we have a fantastic waiting area for groups and offer group discounts. There are no lines at Fright Nights by the way.. we text you when it's time to enter.

Does Fright Nights WV offer any special deals, discounts, or coupons?

We offer deals and discounts throughout the pre-season on our Facebook page. We offer group discounts. Just reach out to us on our website or Facebook page to get your own promo-code for your group.

Anything else you'd like to let us know about Fright Nights WV?

Fright Nights WV eliminated line waiting in 2019. We text your group when it's time to enter the attraction.
