The Darkness is an indisputably leading Haunted Attraction in the Country and one of the best St. Louis Haunted Houses you could ever find. It is no wonder it was rated #3 on the list of AOL back in the year 2005. The Darkness boasts several floors, and a great and notable attention to detail. It is one St. Louis Haunted House that is a must-visit and which is the brainchild of Halloween Productions, a dark ride company and high powered haunted house with numerous clients under its name. The Darkness brings in even more to the table than a first-rate world class haunted house -- it forms part of a larger St. Louis Promotion known as Scarefest. Scarefest includes many venues, a very huge advertising and marketing budget, and a comprehensive marketing campaign. Further, producers of the Darkness own and run the Hauntworld.com family of websites which have proven competent enough to drive millions of hits throughout the Halloween season! Note also that Halloween productions have another St. Louis Haunted House that it owns and runs.
