A dimly lit labyrinth leads you straight into the monster’s womb… where a phantasmagoria of horrors awaits that can only be experienced to be understood. Unfathomable monstrosities wait and disturbing spirits lurk, walking among those who enter the Trail of Torment.

Zombie Joe’s Urban Death Trail of Torment is a haunted walk-through theater performance that has risen from the darkest depths of the pandemic and arrives as a celebration for Urban Death’s 16th year in operation. Bring terrifying new theatrical nightmares to thousands of curious guests.
