Due to the large number of ghosts they can hold, haunted houses are consistently scarier than cursed sleeping bags, possessed lean-tos, and ectoplasmic studio apartments. Experience more square feet of terror with today's Groupon: for $13, you get a VIP FastPass (a $25 value) to The Asylum, a seasonal haunted house located located in the parking lot of the Boondocks Fun Center in Northglenn. This Groupon is valid for any visit falling between September 30 and October 28.

Recently dubbed one of the 13 Scariest Destinations in America by Haunted House magazine, The Asylum is packed with mysterious quarters and shocking, mind-tingling twists. Armed with a VIP FastPass, Asylum attendees will move through the line more quickly, thereby expediting their incumbent encounters with spiders, rats, snakes, and an off-kilter cast of creeping, screeching characters. Unlike many haunted houses full of fake cobwebs and chipper early- bird zombies, The Asylum offers a more chilling alternative. Open as late as midnight on Fridays and Saturdays, this terrific terror playland provides safe, aesthetically displeasing pleasures for thrill-seekers of all ages, interests, and allegiances toward or against vampire voting rights.
