About Us

The Dark Carnival is a circus-themed haunted attraction established in 2010.  Through our dynamic mix  of altered illusion effects and trained actors, we have been providing scares across the state of New Jersey for the past five years.  Our high intensity shows have opened in East Brunswick, Freehold and Bayvillle and have even done a successful 18 day run at Met Life Stadium.  By working with the top animators and prop masters in the haunt industry, the Dark Carnival continues to stay on top of all the cutting edge new haunt technology, and will be sure to continue providing the best scares to our customers for years to come.

In 2015, The Dark Carnival acquired the SK Pierce Haunted Victorian. This venture will force us to think out of the box as we no longer will be using actors and animatronics to provide our unique forms of entertainment. Now we will be relying on true paranormal elements and historical lore to provide our guests with an experience they will never forget. We hope you enjoy this one of a kind experience!!!
