House of Spirits: A Haunted Cocktail Soirée - NYC - New York, NY

First time attending the haunted soirée and we loved it! It gave us a chance to dress up for Halloween and enjoy date night. We opted for the silver package which entails 2 hour performance and 5 strong drinks which made the night even better. Highly recommend if you are looking for something fun/spooky to do.

My wife and I had a blast at the House of Spirits! It was our first time visiting a haunted house and it exceeded my expectations. The ambiance of the mansion was perfect. As you check in you're given your wristband which contains your drink tickets and directed to the library/lounge area for a spooky briefing. After that you're on your own to roam around and be entertained. The best part for us had to be the maze at the top level. I'd advise heading straight there and getting that out of the way before a line forms, but be prepared! After that there's a haunted scavenger hunt which is very creepy. There's themed rooms on each level where you can get cocktails, there's 5 different drink booths each with a different cocktail. I must say The Romanov was very delicious, this was easily our favorite cocktail. In each room there were also interesting performances, the performance with the actress holding a James Dean portrait stole the show! After you're done there's a nice lounge where you can hang out and have more drinks if you choose. Overall this was a fantastic experience, all of the actors and actresses did a wonderful job. The drinks were great and the thrills were abundant. I highly recommend this place. It was definitely worth it.

The overall experience was great. The actors were amazing! The cocktails were good. There was a lot going on and at times it was confusing. It was part solve a mystery, part spook house, part cocktail hour, part live entertainment. To take advantage of the event it really important to talk to the actors to get clues to solve the mystery. Be forewarned there are a lot of stairs! There is an elevator it's old and you have to have permission and a staff member to ride it. There is also no elevator to the attic. There was some confusion amongst staff with our check in. We checked in early and didn't receive our group assignment and were not directed to the lounge we ended up waiting in the lobby for 30 minutes before we figured out that the lounge was open. Then had to go get our group assignment because we didn't receive one. Like I said it was overall a fun experience definitely something different.

Awesome adult night out!! Atmosphere was fantastic, including the actual building, costumes, and decore. Highly recommend doing this!! The only reason for 4 stars is because the story was difficult to follow so I stopped caring about it and just enjoyed the experience.

This was a lot of fun! Great costumes and makeup, the actors seemed like they were having a great time. There were a few elements that I think could have been a bit better executed like the maze - compared to everything else it seemed very low budget. It was also very crowded and you had to wait in line to get to each of the main draws of each floor of the mansion. The drinks were great though, and overall it was quite fun.

2nd year in a row and had an amazing time again with my wife. Come early and make sure to interact with all the ghosts to follow the story. The drinks were great, as were the chocolate truffles. Decent scares, but not too bad for those not used to more intense experiences. Super fun!

Cool place! Worth the price in my opinion (purchased the VIP). Perhaps the venue should look into upping the VIP ticket price or limiting the quantity sold because essentially half of the crowd was VIP so it's not like you were really skipping much of a line.

You definitely feel entertained for the full two hours and the drinks are good (and certainly not watered down). I don't think the chocolate package is really all that worth it, but my boyfriend liked it. So I guess it's just up to personal preference!

The actors are very talented and engaging. We had a really great time. I'd definitely come back
