Located at the heart of America's oldest single-family run amusement park, the award winning Haunted House has been thrilling guests for over 50 years. Trimper's famous dark ride a five-minute journey through optical illusions, other-worldly sensations and scenes of horror served with a pinch of humor.
This boardwalk icon was designed by award winning amusement art Bill Tracy and constructed by Granville Trimper in 1964. During the winter of 1988, Granville reimagined the ride-- adding a second story using track and stunts from a closed Tracy attraction -- making it one of the longest dark rides in the industry. Like the town it calls home, the ride has seen many changes over the years. Stunts have come and gone, replaced by the latest in scare effects to keep the ride fresh and exciting without losing it's signature style. As write/filmmaker John Waters says "It is worth a visit to this town just to go on it."

This is my favorite thing to do on the boardwalk. Every trip to OCMD involves a stop here for a little spooky fun. They do a great job with all of the props and the ride itself is pretty long. You also can't complain about the price, still one of the cheapest and most fun things to do!

It was so scary. It looks small but it’s huge. Micheal myers chased me. It’s very long and scary but amazing. $8.50 is worth it. So scary and so fun and it made my whole year, I will be back! It was scary I have never screamed so much. I like it!❤️

I loved this place as a kid so was thinking it would just be silly and nostalgic...THIS WAS SCARY! I said "It would be much scarier with real people" and then literally a guy was standing right behind us in a mask. Then I was like "maybe that was it". NOPE. We got scared several times. My throat hurts from screaming. It was great but I will not take my 6 & 9 year olds on this.
