Hellizondo Haunt returns in 2025 with a brand new theme!

The ground still trembles beneath your feet as you step into the aftermath of the Great San Francisco Earthquake. The once-bustling wharf lies in shambles: timbers split, piers hanging by a thread, and black water leaking into the crevices of what remains. But it isn’t just the destruction of the city you need to fear.

From the shattered depths of the bay, something ancient has awakened. A deep rift torn open beneath the waves has unleashed grotesque sea creatures, with writhing tentacles, glassy eyes, and gaping maws hungering for prey. And they aren’t the only danger lurking in the ruins. The surviving residents of the wharf, driven to madness by fear and desperation, will do anything to save themselves, even if it means sacrificing you.

Your only hope is to cross the broken wharf, dodging collapsing planks, deranged townsfolk, and the horrors slithering in from the sea. But be warned: the deeper you venture, the closer you come to the source of the rift… and not everyone who enters will find their way back.

Do you dare face the quake’s darkest aftershock?

Our walk-through attraction is free and has live actors, strobe lights, fog, and music.

2025 hours of operation:
October 25, 26, and 31: 7:00 to 10:00 PM

“The Haunt at Hellizondo” was formerly located in Simi Valley for 13 years but moved to Canoga Park in 2020. It is now known as “Hellizondo Haunt.” The haunt is a walk-through attraction and yard display with fog, music, animated lighting and props, and live scare actors.

History of the Haunt

Somewhere long ago and a bit too far from any civilized place an outcast preacher fell to his knees in the darkness of the western desert evening. It had been a long and hard trek across Utah without much water and only the food he could forage. He had money, a good amount too, but he knew better than to try and go into any town or camp in these parts to spend it for fear of encountering the law or any righteous man.

“Lord do you mean to take me now? I can go no further and I can’t make right what I’ve done.” He laid down in the road whimpering. “Please, please lord, I’m ready. Thy will be done.”

The still night exploded in sound. Green light illuminated the valley as a meteor tore across the moonless sky, then flashed orange and red as the mountainside exploded in a cloud of embers and stone. The preacher stood erect as if instantly resurrected. He had his sign, his mission, now buried deep in the hillside. He was going to dig up that star sent by God, and he was going to need a lot of help. Actually make that “some” help, he didn’t like the idea of too much sharing.
