With awards ranking them as #3 in the world (buzzfeed.com), and top 10 in the U.S. (USA Today & Travel Channel),Fear Factory has quickly grown to be one of Utah's - and the world's - favorite Halloween entertainment attractions.

Fear Factory is located in the heart of Salt Lake City’s industrial district at 666 W. and 800 S. A parking lot with a limited number of stalls is open at the haunt for guest use. Parking is also available along 700 W. Avoid parking under the nearby overpasses or along existing bike lanes. Guest may also park at The Gateway and ride the free Zombie Bus to the factory. Great news! Fear Factory’s demand is so high, we’ve added an additional parking lot on the corner of 800 South and 400 West, just two blocks East of our location. Park your car and walk on over to Fear Factory (no bus/shuttle stops are provided). Watch out for our monsters, and the train, along the way. The parking lot is fully fenced and will be checked by a Fear Factory event staff member throughout the night.

    The employees were soo awesome and helpful. The atmosphere is amazing. Noticed the new drink displaying (Themed), they looked amazing. Selfie station has many fun features to take pictures with many and share…. Oh WOW! A few things may not be available as some sites say, soo just be patient and heads up. Even though this may be… it’s still a blast and more.

  • Absolute insanity

    Extremely scary. Also wanted to note that my parents used to work here. There is no way this place is not going full swing at any given time.

  • AMAZING

    It was so much fun!! I was scared shitless when walking and got separated from my group! You never know what is around the corner and you just pray there’s nothing. There was a lot of good jumpscares that I didn’t except and didn’t want. The people who were dressed up were very entertaining and helped me (in a scary way) when I couldn’t really see in the dark. It was really fun and terrifying hearing them talk. The clown part I loved the most! I got dizzy and all those clown actors and their colors were outstanding!! And to the people who built this are genius’s!! Very fun, would recommend to absolutely anyone that can take or want a good scare!

  • Great time!

    I am a grown man and they were parts that made the hair stand up on the back of my neck. It was so fun and well orchestrated. Definitely worth coming multiple times per season.
