NEW JERSEY’S LEGENDARY BRIGHTON ASYLUM

Now, the asylum has re-opened and is accepting new patients! Brighton Asylum is a massive walk-through dark attraction filled with terrifying live actors, horror movie style scares, and Hollywood quality special effects. Check in here. You have nothing to lose but your mind!

3 Terrifying Haunted Attractions

BRIGHTON ASYLUM

Once home to the most disturbed minds, Brighton Asylum has lain in decay for nearly 60 years. Now, its doors have reopened, revealing the horrors that have festered in the shadows since 1952. Uncover the dark secrets within—if you dare. Do you have what it takes to survive?

Subculture

They were among Brighton Asylum’s most feared and dangerous. Escaping to the tunnels during a routine patient transfer, they adapted to the dark, preying on anyone who traveled through. They’ll try to trick you. They’ll try to recruit you. And if all else fails, They’ll simply take you! Will you escape? Or will these inhabitants overwhelm your mind and spirit?

The Bleeding Grounds

Venture into the forsaken staff quarters on the abandoned second floor of Brighton Asylum, sealed off since 1952. Here, the staff once worked, slept, and conducted their twisted experiments. Uncover the chilling truth behind why this once-bustling floor was condemned, earning the haunting name…The Bleeding Grounds. Will you escape with your sanity?
