Judgement House is and eight-scene walk-through drama dealing with the realities of eternal life and death based on the choices we make while on this earth.

This year’s drama is a story about a teenager who is bullied and tragically resorts to gun violence to deal with those around him. As a result, visitors will follow four classmates as they experience judgement, hell, and heaven.

New tour groups start every 12 minutes, and the journey takes 60 minutes to complete.
