Located in the outlying area of Dallas, the Reindeer Manor has been serving up a frightful experience to visitors for some thirty-seven years. Human activity on the site dates back to the early twentieth century, when an unspeakable crime apparently occurred on what was then a farm. Over the years, the air of tragedy that clings to the location has not dispersed. Those brave enough to tour the manor will find the site has now expanded into a haunted complex of sorts, featuring other attractions such as the Dungeon of Doom, a horror movie-themed event. The attractions are all seasonal, and only open during September, October and November.

Hosted by the Dallas Historical Society, the annual Cemetery Tour brings visitors to the city's most renowned cemeteries as well as some less famous ones. Often viewed as some of the scariest places ever, cemeteries are haunting and fascinating. The tour, which is held in 2010 on May 15th, is guided by the "Cemetery Lady," and includes lunch. (Members of the historical society can buy tickets at a discount.)
