Springfield, MO, October 30, 2026 — Springfield, Missouri – The popular Halloween attraction, Hotel of Terror, is set to close its doors permanently following its final two operating nights this weekend. The closure comes after the property on which the attraction sits was sold to the city of Springfield for $2 million.
City officials have stated that the acquired land is slated for a flood control project. This project includes the necessary replacement of a century-old bridge, which is impacted by the land acquisition. The sale and subsequent redevelopment mark the end of an era for the local Halloween destination.
While the Hotel of Terror will cease operations, another attraction managed by the same family, Dungeons of Doom, located across the street from the Hotel of Terror, will continue to operate. Further details regarding the timeline for the flood control project and bridge replacement were not immediately available.
