Terror in the Jungle


This Halloween, a petrifying attraction starred by scary mortals and zombie-like Aztec Indians will take over South Florida’s favorite haunt to provide visitors with 20 nights of hair-raising events. Presented by Florida Event Productions and Jungle Island, Terror in the Jungle will also boast a VIP Zombie Lounge by E11even Miami, the exclusive after-party sponsor.

From the creator of Festival of Souls (Demon Mansion), voted Florida's Scariest Haunted House by Hauntworld.com, Terror in the Jungle will feature a chilling 40 x 22-foot Toxic Zombie Jungle Entrance leading guests through five acres of terrorizing jungle paths and a 10,000 square-foot ancient Ruins Pyramid Haunted House. Carefully navigate a dark jungle filled with zombies, demons and military HAZMAT containment units all while being chased by wild creatures. Many more surprises wait inside the Ruins Pyramid, which will give even the fearless the fright of their life.



I got the opportunity to experience Terror in the Jungle, and it certainly lives up to its name. It starts off with a giant gorilla, and snake waiting for you at the entrance. They are great to take pictures of, as you can see I did, but after that the fun is over! Once you walk through the temple entrance prepare to be scared!



Before reaching the Ruins Pyramid, you must navigate your way through an extremely dark jungle. Because this haunted event is actually set in Parrot Jungle, it provides a perfectly real jungle for the scare actors to hide in. Trust me when I say there will be some that jump out, and you will have no idea they are there. Most of the path is completely dark, and if you've never been there it can be unnerving to walk through. There are some demons, and zombies that make themselves visible, and you should be thankful you could see them, as opposed to what's hiding in the bushes.



Take a deep breath when you reach the pyramid, and prepare to be scared all over again. Just as the path to get there is dark, there are many rooms in the pyramid that are equally as dark. In some cases you won't see what is coming until it's too late. As you make your way through the darkness, you will be able to hear the screams, and sounds of the unsettled natives that aren't too happy that you are there. In some haunted houses you will see a victim on a table ready to be worked on by some crazy person. In one of the rooms here, you get to see two huge wolves making sure you have not come to steal their meal. There is another great room where more victims have been impaled on large spikes. While you are looking left and right for creatures don't forget to look above you as well. 


This lovely young lady (pictured below) is one of the stars of the event. While there are many great rooms in the pyramid, you certainly won't leave there forgetting her room. You will be able to hear her before walking into her room, and you positively will be able to hear her once inside of it. All she wants is someone who is brave enough to play dolls with!


With all of that said, I hope you get a chance to make your way through the jungle, and experience this haunted house. There is plenty of terror in this jungle! And for the truly scared, there is a VIP lounge for those who might need a drink before, and after their terrifying experience.
