2022 Hauntings Contest

If you enjoy ghost stories and spine-tingling suspense, then come for an unforgettable evening with some of Utah’s finest (and scariest) storytellers at the eighth, annual Utah Hauntings Contest. The ancient tradition of oral storytelling meets the wonders of Halloween as finalists compete for a $100 cash prize, season tickets to Great Hall Theatrical’s events, and, most importantly, an entire year of bragging rights. Anyone can send in a video audition to compete, but only six finalists will be chosen to fill you with shivers.
