History Of The Haunt

A one-of-a-kind experience born and raised in Taylor.
Since 2001, The Scream Machine has been operating in Taylor, MI. Originally at The Sheridan Community Center in Heritage Park, our haunt saw a few spaces in the area before finding its new home in 2023.

The Scream Machine is a group-created passion project featuring handcrafted sets and actor-driven effects. Each chapter in our saga represents a refined version of its predecessor, we’re constantly working and finding the best way of offering new and unexpected frights for our audience every season.

Now, we’re upping the ante with a more spacious venue. While we’re still your seasonal ticket to adrenaline-pumping horror, our larger venue means more room and a greater array of scares than ever before. Our enduring commitment to innovation means the chills and thrills will never get stale. Every visit promises something new, keeping even our most loyal fear aficionados guessing.
