Rated one of the top 25 must-see attractions in America by "Haunted Attraction" Magazine, Haunted Nashville consists of three different attractions in one 34,000-square foot building. In the House of Distortion, visitors make their way through a large area filled with artifacts from the early 19th century, with frights waiting around every turn. Turbidite Manor lets visitors explore a Goldrush era home filled with haunts. This section of Haunted Nashville was featured on Jimmy Kimmel Live. Epidemic! is the final section of Haunted Nashville, and is set up like an old laboratory.
The official Web site recommends setting aside at least an hour to go through all three attractions. Haunted Nashville rates itself as PG, but individual discretion is advised with younger children.

Ruby Falls Haunted Cavern consists of three different elements. The first part is a cave exploration in which visitors make their way through an underground cave system. Visitors also enjoy a bus ride and a segment known as Top Haunt. The story behind this haunted attraction is that a town called Hannibal Hill has been infected by the Cerberus Virus and must be put under quarantine. In order to avoid infection, visitors must head underground into the cave and avoid being bitten. Ruby Falls Haunted Cavern was designed with teens and adults in mind; carrying a child through is prohibited. For older children, parental discretion should be used.
