Haunted Lock-down Sleepover at the old County Jail! Nov. 15th-16th.
Are you into scary adventures? Something unusual to do?
Experience a one-of-a-kind, unique adventure!
Bring your date, partner and friends and join us in the historic 1937 former Courthouse & County Jail located in downtown Las Cruces, NM. Not for the faint of heart!
You will be checked off the guest manifest, escorted to the old County Jail to get your bedroll and blankets set up in your Jail cell. Then come upstairs inside the beautiful Courtroom for a delicious hot meal with all the fixings, cold water, soft drinks, hot coffee and hot teas/ hot chocolate and complementary wine and dessert. Watch a short video about the entities (7), that call this old complex home.
Your adventure continues with a fun game of "Haunted Lock down Laser Tag" inside the 18,500 square foot Jail!
We divide the large group up into laser tag teams to battle it out with the other teams!
After the Laser Tag Games, we divide everyone up into two large teams, for the Balloon Game! You, or your significant, other is blindfolded, and you lead your partner, who is given a thumb tack into the Balloon room when the whistle blows.
You lead your blindfolded partner around the room popping as many overhead confetti filled balloons as you can before the other team pops your teams' balloons!
The fun doesn't stop there; you are given 2-hours to explore the huge complex on your own by candlelight!
Will the ladies that live here say "hello" as you explore dark corridors and spooky rooms?
Or will the little girl tug on your pants because she wants to play?
Will one of the shadow men step out to intimidate you?
After your exploration, you will meet in the old prisoner's exercise yard around the fire pit with camp chairs to hear ghost stories about the entities that call this historic place home.
After the ghost story telling, it's time for lock-down, lights out! Sweet dreams!
In the morning, we will have steaming hot coffee, hot water for tea and hot chocolate, orange juice, hot breakfast burritos and pastries before you head out.
You have the option of sleeping inside a Jail cell on steel bunk beds, or renting one of our tents, (2-person size or 4-person size).
You can also rent one of our single inflatable mattresses or a full size, (2-person size) for putting your blankets/pillow/sleeping bag on top of.
If you have friends coming out with you, you can choose an "individual cell", they have from two to 4 beds in each
We HIGHLY recommend either renting our air mattresses or bring your own for comfort.
Please note: Choose the single air mattresses, if you are sleeping in a jail cell, they fit better on the steel bunk beds inside the cells.
Our tents will be set up inside large open room cells. If you want some privacy, that is the rental add-on to choose.
We also offer custom prison T-shirts to purchase! You can purchase it as an add-on when you buy your tickets! ($28.00) small to 3x large.
