Love Is In The Scare is a special, once a year event in Columbus, Ohio, that combines the thrills and chills of the Halloween season with the love and romance that comes with Valentine’s Day. This year’s event will feature double the thrills with 2 massive immersive attractions.
There’s no feeling in the world like being in love. The sky seems bluer, the grass seems greener, and it feels like the universe is on your side. The future ahead with your new sweetheart by your side seems flawless. But is it?
Love can be powerful in many ways, including altering the universe around us. It can seem, at times, that we’ve thrown all our sense out the window in order to let love be the guiding light. So, this Valentine’s Day, let your heart be your guide as you navigate through total darkness with your sweetheart by your side. Because we’ve all heard the term “Love is Blind”, but do any of us actually know what that means?
Many ailments have plagued humans throughout history, but none are quite as powerful, perhaps, as loneliness. And arguably no one in the quiet town of Rapture is feeling the effects of this plague more deeply than the patients being housed in the city’s prominent asylum, WIMM.
Exhausted from being kept from the world in solitary confinement, the residents of WIMM have banned together and managed to break free from the walls of the asylum, and just in time for a day infamous for love, Valentine’s Day. Desperate to find companionship, the patients have taken over the city looking for the love and affection they so desperately crave, leaving a trail of destruction and broken hearts behind them.
We have a full retail area at our facility that has exclusive merch for this special event. Featuring not only Fear Columbus merchandise but also plenty of snacks, drinks, and Halloween themed items from several partnered vendors. We also sell printed souvenir group photos that you will take when you enter the first attraction!
Your group will get a professional group photo in our themed photo op before entering the attractions! You will have the option to purchase a printed souvenir photo or digital download at the Fear Gear Store! In addition, we have a few selfie stations around the facility where you can take your own photos.
Due to very high demand and limited capacity all tickets for this event MUST be purchased online in advance. You will need to select your date and time you would like to attend when you purchase your ticket so please plan accordingly.
