Terror Behind the Walls means just that – a hair-raising haunted house. In honor of Halloween, the abandoned, foreboding Eastern State Penitentiary is transformed into a palace of fright.

 

  

An empty prison at night is scary enough, but the attraction adds a wide range of special effects, lighting, digital sound, props and animatronic creatures.

 

You never know who – or what – is lurking in those dark, dank cells!

 

Five separate sections – 13 Rooms, Intake, Maximum Security, Tunnel Escape and The Experiment – offer their own variety of thrills and chills.

 

In The Experiment, you can step inside the mind of a madman, and help the patients take over the madhouse!

 

Parents, beware: This activity truly is scary, with “things” jumping out from the cells. It might be too much for some kids. With that in mind, the first hour on Sundays and Oct. 19 will be tamer for ages 7-12.
