Haunted Houses: The Edge of Hell and The Beast
The Edge of Hell: A con- verted five story warehouse, The Edge of Hell offers a quarter-mile walk through sensory stimulation that ends abruptly 30 minutes later, as you slide from heaven down the five-story spiral slide into the arms of the Devil himself.
The Beast: It takes about 40 minutes to go through The Beast — if you don’t get lost in the fog in the Werewolf Forest, stuck in the maze or pulled toward the light in the three-story light tower. The exit is a steep four-story slide.
Ticket prices range from $23 – $74. Prices increase based on weekend or week- day, line pass or regular and number of attractions to which the ticket provides admittance. Group rates are available for parties of 20 or more. Houses are at 1401 West 13th Street in downtown Kansas City.
