Nightmare: House on Franklin St
“This is no dream house - this is where nightmares come to life.”
A depraved family and their disgruntled staff welcome you as their guest for a night of unspeakable evil - no one is leaving this dinner party alive. Bear witness to the horrific events that tore this house apart and explore an abandoned San Francisco mansion. If you survive this ominous haunted manor you will leave trembling and screaming for more! This is not your average haunted house. It combines psychological horror with immersive theatrical storytelling. Do not expect traditional jump scares and animatronic decorations. Do anticipate having night terrors. The experience is approximately 45-minutes and contains use of fog, strobe, and loud effects. Due to the disturbing nature of the content, this attraction may be too intense for the faint of heart and is recommended for 16+.

About The Palace Theater
Tucked beneath the streets of North Beach - and quite accessible, if you know where to look… - The Palace Theater has been San Francisco's best-kept secret since long before anyone thought to keep it. The space itself has lived many lives: a Russian Orthodox cathedral, a Chinese theatre, a home for the legendary Cockettes, and eventually the celebrated immersive production Speakeasy, which sold out 425 performances before closing in 2019. Today, The Palace is home to The illusionist Kevin Blake's acclaimed residency, alongside an evolving lineup of cabaret, immersive theatre, and one-night experiences unlike anything else in the city. Eight sprawling rooms, a sunken cabaret stage, hidden bars, and a labyrinthine layout that rewards the curious… Whether it's a close-up magic show at a poker table, a one-night cabaret, or an immersive evening that takes over the entire venue, The Palace is where San Francisco's most extraordinary nights happen, just off Broadway.
