Where do I Go for Halloween Fun?
Skeleton Key Hawai‘i
Have you heard? The Skeleton Key Hawai‘i has returned! And you won’t want to miss this scary, fun event. Honolulu Magazine shared, “The hair-raising haunt is created by Koa Theater’s practitioners whose attention to detail in sets, lights, and performance is sure to make it an unforgettable experience.” Buy your tickets here to attend on either Oct. 21st and 22nd, Oct. 28th and 29th, 2:00 pm - 4:00 pm. Skeleton Key Hawai‘i is a spooky walk-through haunted house, for ages 12 and up. But there are Keiki hours available for 10-year-olds or younger, and it is less intimidating for the younger crowds.
There is a new location for this year's event, located in the former Inspirations space at Pearlridge Center, Wai Makai, second level, directly underneath the movie theaters.
