Louisville Kentucky Haunted Houses Guide

Louisville, Kentucky is home to a wide variety of haunted houses, though they're often hard to discover. This guide offers all of the information you'll need to plan visits to all of the best Louisville haunted houses.

Waverly Hills Sanatorium
Waverly Hills Sanatorium was built as a Tuberculosis hospital in the early part of the 20^th century. It served as a nursing home at the end of the Tuberculosis epidemic before being closed down and condemned. After sitting empty for several decades, owners decided to open the hospital for tours and a yearly haunted house.

The haunted house at Waverly Hills consists of two parts. The first part is a typical haunted house where costumed employees jump out and scream at visitors. The second part, on the other hand, is unlike any other Louisville haunted house. Visitors to the second part of the haunted house walk through what is essentially a pitch black, silent section of the hospital. No one jumps out and boos, and the silence makes the hospital that much scarier.

Waverly Hills Sanatorium has been featured on ABC/FOX Family Channel's "Scariest Places on Earth," VH1's "Celebrity Paranormal Project," and the Sci Fi Channel's "Ghost Hunters." For the Waverly Hills haunted house schedule, visit online.

The Baxter Avenue Morgue
The Baxter Avenue Morgue is an old morgue in the Highlands area that is opened to the public as a haunted house around Halloween. The spookiest part of this Louisville haunted house is its location, though there's not a lot more than goblins jumping out of closets as far as fear is concerned.

Individuals who buy their tickets for the Baxter Avenue Morgue online can opt for VIP tickets that allow them to skip the long ticket line. To buy tickets or see this year's schedule, visit the Morgue online.
