The
people behind Creep LA are actually doing something and they've always
managed to get under my skin and give me nightmares, but it's an
extremely short-run and way different experience.
INSIDE, a socially-distant bite-sized Halloween treat. Quarantined households (up to 5 max) are invited to a guided outdoor ghost tour. Guests will creep around an iconic haunted LA property for a quick night of spooky stories and striking visuals. Ghostly poetry chronicles this mansion’s dark history as guests get a glimpse INSIDE decades of horrific Halloween nights at home.
INSIDE will pop-up for 3 nights in October during Halloween Week (29th - 31st) Reservations are extremely limited and sure to sell out.
Stranger Things: The Drive-Into Experience is taking place in October. It"ll cost you $59 per car and is located somewhere in downtown LA. It's got all the marking of Netflix, so it's as an official haunt for the show.
Update: from missfortunate966 on Reddit
What'll happen? It looks like you'll cruise in your car around Hawkins and probably the Upside Down at some point I'll while being scared by monsters from the show. It sounds great for fans of the show.
You will drive down a creepy stretch of road featuring some of the sets and scenic environments you've come to love at the hayride, followed by a haunted show featuring an original multimedia story displayed on a 40 foot screen, as well as horrifying sets and live characters from Midnight Falls!

Traylor (Michael Greyeyes, True Detective), the tribal sheriff, must protect his son’s pregnant girlfriend, apocalyptic refugees and people of the reservation from hordes of walking white corpses.
- Host — Six friends get together during lockdown for their weekly zoom call and instead of a quiz, Hayley (Hayley Bishop, Dawn of the Deaf) has arranged for a Medium to conduct a virtual séance. But a demonic presence has crossed over, threatening to pick them off one by one.
- The Mortuary Collection — A young drifter applies for a job at the local mortuary and meets an eccentric mortician (Clancy Brown, The Shawshank Redemption) who chronicles the strange history of the town through a series of twisted tales, each more terrifying than the last.
