Win Tickets to Evansville’s Olde Courthouse Catacombs and House of Lecter
Spooky season is upon us and two Evansville traditions have made their return! The Olde Courthouse Catacombs and the House of Lecter - two of the city's longest-running and most beloved haunted attractions bring us the Burial Grounds!
A Recipe for Scares
Every year the creative and talented folks behind the annual haunted tradition put in thousands of hours to craft and create the creepiest props, backdrops, characters, and themes and they never miss a single detail from sound and light (or lack thereof) to costumes, music and of course screams and scares.
Truly Haunted
There is a reason that the Olde Courthouse Catacombs and the House of Lecter are two of the most loved and well-known haunted attractions in the Tri-state and according to their website,
Both haunted houses have been authentically documented as haunted/paranormal by the Ind. Ghost Watchers Association
The Burial Grounds
The 2022 theme for the Olde Courthouse Catacombs is the Burial Grounds which is fitting if you ask us considering that the haunt takes place literally underground. It's in the basement of one of the oldest buildings in Evansville. Construction began in 1888 and concluded in November 1890 so yeah, I think it is definitely safe to say that the basement underneath definitely has some burial tomb-like vibes
The Old Courthouse Catacombs and the House of Lecter present The Burial Grounds! A creepy dark Stairwell leads down to the Tomb of Unmarked Graves…where caskets have opened…and Spirits have risen to drift among the living in the Haunted Corridors. Beneath the Catacombs and House of Lecter lurks a Maze of tunnels….a world of Shadows and rooms filled with….BONES. Deep within the Burial Grounds you’ll enter the Spine-Chilling Funeral Parlor of “ The Missing Family” where you’ll hear faint moans and groans…as if someone is trying to Escape!!!
