The Heart of Darkness, Waterloo

The Heart of Darkness is not a place for the faint-hearted. This Iowa's largest haunt complex hosts 10 different themed areas designed specifically for the ultimate hair-raising and spine-chilling horror experience. With 22,600 square feet of indoor and outdoor frights, The Heart of Darkness is able to give you a 30-minute walk-through tour, which ends up in a panic run-for-your-life escape from Grizzley's Chainsaw Massacre. So, if you're not afraid to face your darkest fears, then enter the Darkhold Castle, take a ride with Freddy's Bus, play hide and seek with the bloodthirsty zombies in Zombie Infestation Forest, have fun at the 3D Killer Circus, or dip into Boggy Creek Swamp. After that, you will have no doubt why The Heart of Darkness was voted number one haunt in Iowa in 2016.
