A new haunted maze that expands upon a Roaring ’20’s scare zone at Knott’s Scary Farm takes you inside a Prohibition Era speakeasy and an Art Deco hotel where mobsters secretly distill a Devil’s Elixir that is mysteriously killing revelers and protesters alike.
The new Room 13 haunted maze joins the 50th anniversary lineup at Knott’s Berry Farm that will feature 10 haunted mazes, five scare zones and four live shows on select nights from Sept. 21 through Oct. 31.

Consider this your spoiler alert as we embark on a preview tour of the new Room 13 haunted maze coming to the Buena Park theme park.
The Room 13 maze set in the decadent Prohibition Era of the 1920s tells the origin story of the deadly Devil’s Elixir bootleg booze that has filled the Gore-ing 20’s scare zone with undead flappers, mobsters and revelers from the Roaring 20’s.
Room 13 will take Scary Farmers inside the park’s often-overlooked Blind Tiger speakeasy — a locked door beneath the Walter Knott Theater. Diehard Knott’s fans know that ringing the Blind Tiger doorbell triggers an audio track recreating bar activity from inside the speakeasy.
The Room 13 maze finally unlocks the Blind Tiger door and takes daring imbibers inside the speakeasy and an Art Deco hotel to see where the deadly illicit hooch is made.

Scene One inside the maze takes visitors inside the Blind Tiger bar where the eerie green elixir is on the menu. Hotel room keys on the bar and at the tables suggest what lays ahead.
The gold-trimmed lobby of the luxurious Argive Hotel offers signs of the deadly effects of the Devil’s Elixir and delivers a recurring warning: Don’t go in Room 13.
Inside Room 5, one of the guests who drank too much of the Devil’s Elixir is climbing the walls with an animatronic assist.
