In 2018, Netherworld relocated to its Stone Mountain facility, boasting an expansive 10-acre property with approximately 70,000 square feet of interior space. This is nearly double the space of its previous location, where it had resided for two decades.

Netherworld’s haunted houses and escape room games feature a staggering 500 animatronics and special effects. Backstage, over 3,000 costumes and masks await, with more being created annually to accommodate evolving storylines and characters. The founders of Netherworld have become industry icons, having established and served on various industry associations, penned numerous articles, conducted seminars, and played a vital role in training future haunted attraction owners and operators.

Netherworld shares strong ties with the film and television industry. Many core staff members hail from the entertainment field, and items from Netherworld are frequently rented to productions. The haunted attraction has even contributed sets and props to popular films, including “The Hunger Games,” “American Made,” “Goosebumps,” “Passengers,” and “Zombieland.”

In addition to its legendary haunts, Netherworld offers five highly acclaimed escape rooms, each with a different theme, including the latest “Alien Terror: Doom of the Dark Horizon.” There’s also a Monster Museum that’s open all year round, ensuring a continuous flow of scares.
