Haunted Attraction Network’s 2025 Hauntathon Open for Submissions


 

The Haunted Attraction Network’s 2025 Hauntathon is open for submissions! Now in its eleventh year, the 61-day multimedia celebration spotlighting haunted attractions worldwide brings fans long-form video features, short-form social content, podcast episodes, and a fabulously-written newsletter (if I do say so myself). The event runs daily September 1st through October 31st

“We’re proud to provide a platform that celebrates haunts of all sizes and styles,” said Philip Hernandez, founder of the Haunted Attraction Network. “From industry legends to home haunters, Hauntathon gives creators the visibility they deserve during the most exciting season of the year.”

Hauntathon 2025 is open to haunted attractions of all sizes—from large-scale commercial scream parks to heartfelt home haunts. Selected haunts will be featured in documentary-style videos, podcast interviews, and viral-ready social clips released throughout the Halloween season.
