Fright Kingdom, Nashua: The Only New England Haunt You Can Book Right Now

Fright Kingdom has published its full 2026 calendar — opening September 25 and running into December. Almost nothing else in New England has.

Updated August 3, 2026

Across twenty-six Halloween attractions in six New England states, checked against their own websites, two had published a full 2026 season. One is a corn maze. This is the other.

That makes Fright Kingdom, for now, the only major haunted house in New England you can plan to a specific night.

The 2026 calendar

Opening night is Friday, September 25, then weekends through Saturday, October 31, with Sundays added from October 9 onward.

It does not stop at Halloween:

  • In the Dark — November 6 and 7
  • Fright Before Xmas — December 4 and 5, then December 11 and 12

Effectively a three-season operation, which is unusual in a category that treats November as the off switch.

Tickets, and the two things that catch people out

$41.00 online, all fees included. $45 cash at the box office — and they do not take cards at the door.

That is the detail most likely to ruin an evening. If a time slot has tickets left they are sold cash only at the window. Bring notes or buy online.

It is timed entry in half-hour slots, capped, and the operator states plainly that it tends to sell out. Your ticket time is your arrival time, not a promise of immediate entry — on busy nights you will still queue.

There are no group, VIP or Fright Pass discounts this year. The operator says so directly, which is worth knowing if you are organising a group and looking for the rate that used to exist.

Where it is

12 Simon Street, Nashua, NH 03060. Off Route 3, the Everett Turnpike, at exit 5A — right onto Simon Street and it is 200 yards on the right.

About fifty minutes from Boston, which makes it the nearest confirmed major haunt to the city while Massachusetts venues remain undated.

What you are getting

Four attractions in an industrial building, and an intensity level that is genuinely not for children. This is the opposite end of the spectrum from a daytime corn maze — if you are bringing a family, our family-friendly roundup is the page you want.

Why this page exists

Because in early August 2026 it is almost the only thing in New England you can actually commit to.

Spooky World was still showing 2025 when we checked. Canobie Lake's Screeemfest says information is coming. Haunted Overload's website returns no readable content. Barrett's is confirmed open but has not published a calendar and contradicts itself on its two special-event dates.

Fright Kingdom published everything, in plain text, in July. That deserves saying.
