Parque de Atracciones de Madrid Halloween events and experiences

Haunted adventures for children

Un Laboratorio Muy Loco

Avenida de las Cascadas · Ages 3–12 recommended · Included

A team of wonderfully incompetent scientists has lost control of its experiments. Expect bubbling potions, mischievous monsters, peculiar inventions, and plenty of colorful chaos. Children help restore order while following a playful trail of discoveries, surprises and gentle scares. Think mad science with just enough Halloween mischief to keep young adventurers giggling.

El Castillo Misterioso

Cine 4D · Ages 3–12 recommended · Included

Welcome to a rather unusual school where monsters are learning how to scare people. Ghosts, witches, skeletons and Count Dracula himself are waiting inside. Children wander through enchanted corridors and meet the castle's peculiar residents, enjoying a playful introduction to Halloween's classic creatures without the full intensity of a grown-up haunted house.

La Pirámide Maldita

Beside Tifón · Ages 3–12 recommended · Included

An Egyptian pyramid, an ancient curse and a secret word that could set you free. Inside, children encounter mummies, mysterious gods and puzzles while attempting to escape Anubis's curse. This adventure puts a little more mystery into the Halloween mix, making it a fun choice for curious children who enjoy solving clues.

All three children's passages operate during the Halloween season on scheduled park days. Each walkthrough lasts approximately 7–8 minutes, and minors must be accompanied by at least one adult.

Haunted passages for teenagers and adults

El Templo de Shanarkai

Beside Tifón · Ages 10+ recommended · Included

Archaeologists have awakened something that should have stayed buried. Venture into a cursed Egyptian temple packed with traps, unnerving trials and a mummy that's decidedly unhappy about being disturbed. Your mission is to help lift the ancient curse and escape. Unlike the children's pyramid adventure, this one is designed for proper scares.

El Viejo Caserón

Beside Abismo · Ages 10+ recommended · Included

Madrid's classic haunted-house experience returns to its horror roots. Originally introduced in 1989, El Viejo Caserón resurrects notorious characters including Dracula, Freddy and the possessed girl from The Exorcist. Detailed sets, unsettling music and theatrical encounters make this the maze for anyone who prefers old-school horror over elaborate puzzles.

Nosferatu

Cine 4D · Ages 10+ recommended · Included

Vampire hunters have uncovered a sinister crypt, and apparently nobody thought sealing it back up was a good idea. Inspired by the secret order led by Van Helsing, this walkthrough takes you into the lair of a bloodthirsty vampire. Expect gothic atmosphere, supernatural encounters and the uncomfortable suspicion that something is following you.

The Walking Dead Experience

Dedicated horror attraction · Separate paid ticket

Step into the post-apocalyptic world of The Walking Dead, where the undead are considerably closer than you'd like. This premium horror walkthrough is aimed at visitors seeking a more intense zombie experience. Unlike the other three adult horror passages, it requires an additional ticket, which can also be included in the Halloween VIP package.

Adult horror experiences are individually scheduled during the Halloween season; please check the daily opening time for all passages.

Halloween shows, performances and scare zones

Lacrimosa: La maldición del teatro

Gran Teatro Auditorio · Ages 8+ recommended · Included

A tragic theatrical legend returns to haunt an old stage. This new Halloween musical follows a company of performers drawn into mysterious secrets, obsession and an unsettling supernatural presence. Gothic costumes, haunting melodies and powerful vocals deliver a darker, more atmospheric show. Best for visitors who prefer theatrical suspense to jump scares.

Nickelodeon Halloween Party

Gran Teatro Auditorio · Families and children · Included

SpongeBob, Patrick, Dora and PAW Patrol favourites Chase, Marshall and Skye are throwing a Halloween party, and everybody's invited. Expect costumed characters, dancing, interactive games and cheerful surprises. This is the show to prioritise with younger children, particularly those who would rather dance with their favorite cartoon characters than meet a mummy.

Salida Zombie

Plaza Star Flyer · Teenagers and adults · Included

A zombie uprising has broken out at The Walking Dead Experience, and a special operations team is trying to contain the situation. Watch the chaos unfold as the undead escape into the surrounding area. It's a live street performance rather than a walkthrough, so you can experience the zombie action without purchasing the separate Walking Dead attraction ticket.

Área 51 Scare Zone

Área 51 themed zone · Horror enthusiasts · Included

Classified experiments, mysterious creatures and secrets that should probably remain classified. Inspired by 1980s science-fiction horror, Área 51 transforms a section of the park into an immersive scare zone filled with actors, surprises and unsettling encounters. It's ideal for visitors who enjoy atmospheric horror without committing to an enclosed haunted maze.
