Pinhead's Graveyard, located at 562 Main Street, Canton, North Carolina 28716, is one of the Best & Top Rated Haunted Houses and Haunted Attractions in North Carolina and the South. We were Voted #1 North Carolina Haunted House & Attraction in 2018, 2019, 2021 & 2023 by NorthCarolinaHauntedHouses.com and Haunts.com
You will see main horror movie characters who do not want to be bothered including Pinhead, Freddy Krueger, Michael Myers, Jason Voorhees, Leatherface, Pennywise, Otis, The Strangers, Cenobites, The Nun, Jigsaw, Hell House Clown and many more.
In 2021, Pinhead’s Graveyard moved inside! We found a century old building with rich history, creepy character and we are now able to operate our Haunted House in a truly Haunted Building. During preparation for the attraction, we have already experienced several supernatural events including orbs, moving objects, loud footsteps, an EVP saying "GET OUT" other things that will make the hair on your arms stand straight up.
Being inside is allowing us to elevate the Graveyard from its outside roots and build elaborate sets, create jump scares and the addition of animatronics to supplement our already solid foundation of characters.
The graveyard is appropriate for all ages and groups with small children can expect a toned down version of scares. Even though we take pride on the realism of our haunted house, we also take pride that we are family orientated and family friendly. We are a fun and safe haunted house that people visit in October.
We will be the most interactive haunted house you will ever experience.
| Hours of Operation | We open around 7:00pm every night. We have our closing times listed on our calendar on pinheadsgraveyard.com. Please check your specific date because each night is different. You must be in line by the closing time listed on our schedule. We will finish the remainder of the line before we close. |

Reviews
Pinheads graveyard is the best haunted house around! I went on Oct 30 2025 and it was amazing. The characters were so so so good! The environment is so spooky with it being in an over 100 yr old house, and spooky music all around. The staff is incredibly nice and helpful. The extra $5 for a glowstick is so worth it!!! Such a scarier and fun experience with those! Constant screaming and thrills! There’s a reason I go every year

Pinheads is one of, if not THE best, of the local haunts I’ve been to! The special effects were actually terrifying, the sets were impressive, and the actors were SO much fun! They really play their roles, and if you opt for the touch pass — be ready for the consequences! The array of merch available was overwhelming in that all of it was fantastic. The business is run by a family (in a REAL haunted building), and they are all lovely people with a real passion for haunts and horrors. I visited from Florida, and cannot wait to come back for my next visit!

This is the best haunted house in NC! So much time and work, sweat and tears, go into this haunt. The actors actually care about giving every single guest a special experience! I would highly recommend Pinheads Graveyard! Worth the trip, money and lifetime memories! Check them out and leave screaming!

This venue was so much fun. Personally, I'm some what leery of haunted houses, but I screamed the entire way through. I'm a huge jump scare fan and I definitely got what I paid for. I would recommend this venue for any of the events they have throughout the year. We had a two year old in our group and although he was a bit frightened at first, the cast members treated him like royalty! Thank you to all who gave us a great night and some good scares. Stay blessed and keep up the haunting!!!!!

Located in a 100+ year-old building in downtown Canton, this haunted house delivers nonstop thrills. The mix of animatronics, live actors, and surprise scares keeps you on edge from start to finish. The staff is fantastic. Otis and his team know how to entertain and make the night unforgettable. Plus, you can grab awesome photos with the scare actors after. Easily one of the best haunted attractions in Western North Carolina!

I love this place so much. Everyone that works here is extremely nice; waiting in the room before going in is always fun cos Pinhead is awesome, and Otis is genuinely just so chill ❤️ In the haunt, everything looks absolutely amazing. Like, costumes, special effects, lights, the way everything is set up, it's all crazy cool. As far as the scares go, 1000000000000/10. I feel like I was jump scared at every turn [ sorry for y'alls eardrums ]. There were also some funny moments that turned into scares like 2 seconds later which was great! Also. The Strangers is the one movie that has genuinely terrified me since I first saw the original years ago. Like, still can't watch it alone, need lights on after, lalala. No idea why, the movie just gets me. So that was terrifying and amazing - the girl in the one mask throughout the upstairs part kept scaring the absolute crap out of me and it was so, so fun. And then the axe guy was awesome too!! Everything was! Sorry for how long this review is, just, love Pinhead's Graveyard ❤️
