| - My girlfriend and I are huge haunted attraction fans, so naturally, Goretorium is of interest to us when we are in town. Coupled with the fact that the G also is home to a bar with a great view of The Strip - Baby Dolls Lounge - it's definitely a spot we like to frequent!
Goretorium opened in October last year, and we visited then; this past weekend, we returned to see how it was holding up since opening and post-Halloween season. We were prepared for the worst, but were VERY pleased and excited to see that it's holding up quite nicely, and in several ways, is actually better now than when it first opened!
There are deals online as far as discounts go, so do your research before buying.
The attraction is a large maze experience with great scenes and fun gory visuals along the way. The budget for this was about $10 million, which is huge for a haunted attraction. For SoCal visitors, I'd equate this to the quality of maze you find each year at Universal Studios Hollywood's Halloween Horror Nights. The length of experience is about 15-20 minutes and the talent (monsters) is really good. Definitely worth a visit, and if you are a haunt fan, this is a must-see when you are in town.
At the exit of the maze is Baby Dolls Lounge, the Goretorium's full bar with a startlingly awesome view of the Las Vegas Strip, Cosmopolitan and CityCenter. Heat lamps keep guests toasty on cold nights at this horror-themed bar, which features regular and signature drinks. Eli's Blood is especially tasty, which I recommend, as well as Blue Death!
NOTE: Guests wanting to visit Baby Dolls Lounge do NOT have to go through the maze itself; it is open to the public.
Goretorium is Vegas' only year-round haunted attraction, so horror fans can get their fix any time they pass through Sin City!
By the way - the bathrooms are fully-themed and awesome! No spoilers here; just venture in and experience them for yourself!
