The NJ Bates Motel IS NOW CLOSED TO YHE PUBLIC

THE NJ BATES MOTEL IS CLOSED TO THE PUBLIC

For nearly 20 years, we’ve opened our home and hearts to the community — free of charge — to create something special every Halloween.

This year, that goodwill was met with chaos.

Crowds showed up with no respect for the property, our neighbors, or our guests. They pushed, broke things, littered, cut lines, and turned a safe event into something ugly.

Because of that, the NJ Bates Motel is now closed to the public.

From here on, it’s friends, family, and invited guests only.

To everyone who came with kindness and respect: thank you. You made it worth it all these years.

NJ Bates Motel 2025

We are bringing the world of Stab off the screen and into our reality. Just like Scream, we’re using Stab as a meta-layer… a horror movie within our haunted story. 

INVITED Guests won’t just watch a scene from Stab… they’ll walk into it.
