Welcome...

Gateway's Haunted Playhouse, Long Island’s number one rated haunted house, returns for an all-new season of Halloween scares!

As a division of The Gateway, Performing Arts Center of Suffolk County, Gateway’s Haunted Playhouse utilizes the numerous theatrical designers and staff at the Gateway – Long Island’s oldest professional theatre. Dozens of professionally trained actors prepare and rehearse each character that inhabits the haunt, giving it a unique, theatrical quality unrivaled on the island.

These actors inhabit a carefully crafted, three-dimensional environment created and built by the Gateway’s renowned design and production team. Over 100 people are on hand every evening to ensure the smooth operation of each haunt.

Each year, a new theme, path and characters are created, giving patrons a brand new experience as they explore the walkthrough attraction. Learn about this year's theme here: 2024 Theme - Click Here

Since its first year in 2009, Gateway’s Haunted Playhouse has grown from its original two-week run, to now include six-weeks of terrifying scares. It has received praise from numerous outlets at the local, state and national levels.

Gateway’s Haunted Playhouse has won the title of Scariest Haunted House on Long Island for three years in a row by popular vote on an interactive News12 poll. It has received favorable attention by the New York Times, and has been cited as one of the top ten haunted houses in New York by USA Today.

This Bellport Haunt was named One of America’s Best Haunted Attractions by Hauntworld Magazine, the world’s number one haunted house resource, and had since built on that success.

Gateway’s Haunted Playhouse is recommended for ages 13 and older.

Smaller children are invited to attend the Not So Scary Adventure for Kids, which will be held Saturday and Sunday afternoons from 12pm-3pm in October. Children explore a well-lit, Halloween-themed playhouse that introduces fun characters along the way. Admission includes activities such as face painting, balloons and an inflatable pumpkin bouncer. The Not So Scary Adventure for Kids is recommended for ages 3 and up.

The Midway

The fun begins before the Haunt! Gateway’s Haunted Playhouse features a nightmare carnival on our Midway every haunt night with food, drinks, and attractions. The Midway is our queuing area, so you can sit down with a snack instead of having to stand on line, and it also makes for a perfect waiting area for those not going through the Haunt.

FOOD & DRINK

Our “Fear Garden” is open every night, and offers beers on top, and a selection of bottled beer and wine for guests 21 and older. We also serve soft drinks and snacks.

Billie Jean’s Grill food truck is present on select nights, with a menu featuring Billie Burgers, Chicken Fingers, Hot Dogs, French Fries, Roasted Corn, Hot Pretzels. Pumpkin Cannollis, Apple Pie Egg Rolls, Churros, Deep Fried Oreos, and other comfort foods. Check out their current menu for more information.
