Nightfall at Old Tucson

Worst experience yet! Not scary, long lines, expensive food, hardly any actors, lame confusing shows.only thing that got scared was our wallet - over $200 for 4 people just to get in.don't forget your hiking shoes for the hike from the parking lot to the actual park… maybe even a folding chair for when you’re waiting in line which are longer than the actual attractions themselves.only thing that was free was the dust on our shoes and my vehicle.

Thanks for your effort in bringing a new concept to an old favorite. This years show was really good and a great family event. Its just the right amount of scary and entertainment. Dont worry about the haters that want the OLD Nightfall, keep doing what you're doing and you'll create new generations of Nightfall lovers. If you want scary, come see us at SlaughterHouse. But if you have a family that loves Halloween, go check out the New Nightfall.

It was kinda fun, the shows were a little corny and I missed the actors all over the park trying to scare everyone. I hope next year, you guys make it scarier! I heard nobody scream other than the actors

So this was my first time at Nightfall and I was sooop excited to go. The price to get in was not horrible either. Upon entering we got a yummy mixed drink and then started to wander around to check everything out. We started with a show which was okay but not that interesting, definitely more kid oriented. Then we went to one of the haunted houses and waited over 30 minutes to get in and let me tell you it wasnt even worth a 5 minute wait. Next we took the train ride which was almost an hour wait. It was decent but nothing scary about it. The mine was pretty much the only attraction I liked there. And then of course the yummy drinks which were not too expensive. We left after walking around for a little longer because we were tired of the lines and then being let down. I originally thought the price wasnt bad but for what they offer they definitely should lower it. I would say its definitely more for kids. Adults looking for something fun and scary should pass on this!

We were skeptical going into things but Nightfall was really cool. It's a little pricey but you don't have to spend any money on individual attractions or anything when inside. My wife and I brought our 9 year old daughter and the actor's upon entry were all over making sure she was being spooked it was awesome. She was pretty scared at some of it but its definitely child friendly as well. The haunted houses could be a bit much for a younger kid. You can tell everybody working there was having a great time. I'm not sure how many times these actors have put on these shows or jumped out at people walking by but it felt authentic and unforced and very professional just all around a great experience. From the actor's on stage to people hiding in the haunted houses the vibe was on point. I want to thank each person there for all the effort seriously even the girl in the candy store. Maybe go a little cheaper on the food and drink but all around It was awesome.

This was my first time at a nightfall and heard great things. Unfortunately It was mostly hype. Apparently they switched this up this year compared to other years. I went in at 7: 30 and the train was "closed" even tho there was a line already and I can clearly see the train passing by. The haunted houses were extremely short not giving you that "fun anxiety" you get from walking through a haunted house. There really weren't any actors and if they were there, they just didn't care about scaring you. However the ones who were just wandering around outside of the saloon had great make up and costumes. The comedy show was fun but man was everything packed. The decorations were awesome and the graveyard haunted house was my favorite. Creepy nuns and cool foggy laser room. It had potential but between the long lines, short haunted houses, "closed" train rides and staff that seemed like they were lost, it's not worth the 100$ plus that I paid.

Place is great had a bootiful time. Scary fun and laughter abundant
More street scares

Friendly, funny, very helpful & entertaining ppl & shows. I will recommend to all & will return. Great yummy Bar-B-Q ribs & brisket! Love, love, love!

This was my first year at nightfall and I’ll be honest most of the attractions in there were a bit lame, some were a bit fun and scary but not all. The train ride was a bit boring as well not too well decorated. Some of the food in the restaurant they have were good except that Rosa’s cantina their taco birria was so bad and cooked weirdly, the person that served us was a bit rude when we ask them a question

The actors, drinks and interactions were amazing! Spent 5 hours exploring the haunted houses, live shows, train ride, carousel, etc.

$200+ for 4 people is outrageous. Long lines for food and lame shows. So much for “new management”. Only thing that got scared is my wallet.

We have been going here so many times over the years. Tucson studios has had its up and downs for fright night consistency. We have always loved being there.
This year really nailed it and all of the park was open with shows, food, drinks and scary attractions.
There were actors and effects throughout the town and it was a great experience.
I would recommend no matter what age to experience this for Halloween or just to tour.
So many movies were filmed here and it is a beautiful place in history for AZ.

Better off taking family to Chucky E cheese and being scared by the robotic creatures there

Up till about 9ish I had a blast, not terribly scary but I'm also just really into this sort of thing and found it fun. Shows were good, at least the few I saw. Unfortunately the crowds were so big, lines got cut in front of my partner and I about three times. Never saw the Seance since the line never died and they cut it in front of us. Never saw any show after the Templeton brothers because of lines actually, they wrapped around whole attractions. Other patrons were rude and drunk out of the gate, saw multiple occasions where people just left and walked in front of actors still performing because the main guy wasn't talking anymore. Several areas advertised as scary zones were mostly uninhabited by actors but the areas with actors were wonderful. To the actors specifically in and around the manor and the wolf den: You made the whole night, you were incredibly friendly and fun and we loved you guys. I wish we could have enjoyed it fully. Probably won't go again because I just can't afford something like that, but I'm still glad we went.

Spoilers but as a note: Honestly was very happy to see DID representation in a character and while they do fall into an unfortunate stereotype eventually they actually made me feel very seen for the first bit of their act. So to that actor thank you! I haven't stopped thinking about it since we went!

Not like it used to be. To many drunk people and not enough scares. The shows were awful and not even a bit spooky/ scary, and every event was rushed. The Seance was a joke. They took away the haunted hayride and anything remotely scary. Really wish I could get a refund! Not planning on going back unless it drastically changes, less drunk people and more scares.

As a family we had fun. The shows were good and the story was interesting. Overall the lines are a little long and the haunted houses are a bit short. They also aren't the scariest but good for kids of all ages. Take advantage of all the things the park has to offer.

How was nightfall? Not so great. Very expensive for minimal entertainment. You have a great place (ghost town) but don't invest the proceeds into a spectacular experience. Not enough actors for the scares and the Dr. Hyde theme has been done to death. It's time to bury it and go in a different direction. Food and drink are very pricey.
Kudos to the Nightfall works for trying so hard.
