review: zombie joe’s “urban death tour of terror”

As a Los Angeles area cult classic, Zombie Joe’s “Urban Death Tour of Terror” has both terrorized and excited its evergrowing fan base for many Halloween seasons. With every passing year they have pushed the boundaries of shock and entertainment, delighting crowds with multiple shows every night. Their hybrid experience of haunted maze and theater show is a consistent staple of the Halloween season that attracts haunters from all parts of the world.

It is important to begin by stating that the Tour of Terror is unlike anything else you will ever experience. Zombie Joe’s unique approach to haunting can be seen in its use of space and storytelling. Every Halloween, the Urban Death theater lobby is transformed into an unlit, claustrophobic series of tunnels. This is the place where you both enter and exit the theater. Your journey through the maze is illuminated by a small flashlight that is given to you at the entrance. Through the series of tight twists and turns you will run directly into strange situations and characters that mix perversion, comedy, and horror all into one strange and memorable visit.

Once inside the theater you can get strapped in for the real horror show. As the stage lights dim there is no turning back from the upcoming series of vignettes that embrace all aspects of shock through an onslaught of relentless short bursts. The show mixes multiple concepts that include murder, mystery, ghosts and even defecation in order to create a truly disturbing experience. For 2022, Zombie Joe’s combines classic past vignettes with new ideas - creating a wonderfully terrifying balance that will delight both loyal fans and new attendees.

This year’s visit to the Tour of Terror reaffirms that Zombie Joe’s has not only held its own space within the creative world of the LA haunt community, but has also maintained a truly expressive consistency throughout the years. This theater show is a must visit for all haunters brave enough to experience the Tour of Terror!
