BOO! Presents The BooMont Hotel, Haunted Experience to Kick Off the Spooky Season in Dallas

The Immersive 13-Room Inn is Back for a Second Year of Fall Family Fun at Galleria Dallas

DALLAS, TX, UNITED STATES, August 20, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — Summer might not be over yet, but the countdown to Halloween has already begun! To ring in the most frightening time of the year, BOO! Presents the BooMont Hotel, one of North Texas’ favorite family-friendly activities, is returning to Galleria Dallas on Friday, Sept. 4. The “haunted” experience is set inside the fictitious hotel, offering a 45-minute, escape room-style walkthrough, where thrill-seekers of all ages will try to uncover a mystery that’s 100 years in the making.

Following brushes with the paranormal and unusual disappearances, the BooMont Hotel shuttered its doors in the early 1900s, leaving behind souls who still roam its halls. This fall, guests will “check in” and immerse themselves in the frightful fun as they explore a brand-new master key scavenger hunt that features 13 stops throughout the hotel. Also making its debut is a ghoul pool and a haunted mirror maze that can make “checking out” a bit of a challenge. All rooms will be decked out for a spooktacular good time.

Making its debut last year, BOO! was created by Baymo, the masterminds behind the popular SNOWDAY and SANTALAND annual experiences at Galleria Dallas each Christmas. Like the two longstanding events, selfies and candid snapshots are highly encouraged. Special ticket packages offer customers the opportunity to download their photos instantly to their phone or enjoy a printed copy to take home.

“We all love getting scared but not everyone loves the gore of monsters and chainsaws, which is why BOO! offers something that everyone of all ages can enjoy,” said Scot Redman, SNOWDAY team member. “After an overwhelming demand last year, we knew we had to bring it back and make it bigger and better than ever before.”

Tickets for BOO! are now available online, with 15% discounted early bird pricing in effect through Sept. 3. Admission is offered in three tiers with arrival time selected at checkout. Tickets may also be purchased at the door. The experience is open Friday-Sunday in September before switching to daily the entire month of October.

BOO! is located on the third floor of Galleria Dallas, near the food court. The shopping center is located at 13350 Dallas Parkway. To learn more and purchase tickets, visit www.theboomont.com.
